IBT Airline Division/Local 357 Scorecard

[Captain Morgan]

You guys need to lighten up. The IBT has always had implied affiliation with the mob. We are just playing off of those affiliations.

potete essere il piu grande idiota che abbia camminato il fronte della terra....il duro lavoro vi otterra piu lontano del rubando un sedile di Airbus.....capisca?

So China clipper it appears you have a great disdain for middle class american workers, why is that. Do you feel far supperior to them because you think they are all to stupid to understand the "intellectual discourse and savvy negotiating strategery necessary for Pilot Negotiations" And how did you come to the belief that you are supperior to all the thousands of members of the Teamsters union?
And why the hatred towards Italians i dont understand how mocking their speech pattern and calling them guido's helps your cause. Just makes you look like an ass.
Please stop your assault on America's middle class workers, stop mocking Italians, keep the name calling out of it and and try and maintain that professionalism that Frontier Pilots claim to possess.

I dunno, it's our fearless leader unveiling his mess of a product. Thought it looked like one of those tele-evangelists.

"Majority opposition does not defeat the duty of fair representation; the duty exists to restrain the majority"

The above quote originates from a recent DFR lawsuit. The IBT believes that the interest of the majority (2000 RAH pilots) trumps the need to represent the minority (700 Frontier pilots, 400 Midwest pilots, 150 Lynx pilots).

The IBT's most recent hostile action, suing their new members (Frontier pilots) has crossed the line so far into DFR territory that it is no longer a question of"if", only a question of "when".

Ironically, the lawsuit has created significant collateral damage. I would not be surprised if the IBT Airline Division ( the apparent "bad cop" in this drama) and the Local 357 (good cop) end up being sued by their own "majority" membership.

The courts have already agreed, "the duty exists to restrain the majority".

Eh.. try harder

potete essere il piu grande idiota che abbia camminato il fronte della terra....il duro lavoro vi otterra piu lontano del rubando un sedile di Airbus.....capisca?

I believe it would be a mistatement to say i am the biggest idiot that has walked the earth...because there is no way to quantify that statement.
But at least this time you have not insulted american middle class workers or an entire race.
Cheers

IBT Imflicts damage on it's own membership

The IBT sues it's own membership, and according to the recently released RJET 10q they have already caused harm.

"If we are not successful and the restructuring agreement is declared null and void, Frontier would lose approximately $9 million to $10 million in cost savings per year over each of the next five years, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations."

This is the first time in history that a "pilots" union has sued it's employer and it's own membership in an effort to unwind an LOA that was legally ratified under the RLA.

Meanwhile, a $70 million dollar liquidity initiative has been placed on hold, the all important negotiations for "Integration agreement" have been cancelled, and when this is all over the IBT will have to pay for everyone's attorneys.

RAH is represented by Ford and Harrison. Expensive.

FAPA Invest has hired Faegre and Benson. Really really expensive.

This will easily cost the IBT $75-100k.

How do the RAH pilots feel about paying a special assessment for your section 6 contract negotiations (have any sections TA'd yet, just one?) when your own union is filing frivolous lawsuits that will eventually be paid with your regular dues? This is reckless behavior on the part of the IBT. I still haven't met ONE IBT rep at my domicile, i haven't received ONE phone call since the election, and the only mail from the IBT has been an invoice for my dues. Are you guys for real?

Here is the kicker. After the IBT lawsuit has been stopped, the stage has been set for the mother of all DFR lawsuits.

You just sued to repeal an LOA that ratified by almost 90%, and 90% of the pilot group participated in the vote! What in the he11 were you thinking?

I know, I know, you were thinking about "the majority" again.

It's gonna cost you huge.
