No, you're wrong.
Flops union, goner than ever.
No dispute.

Skumza-

I was a pre-RTA FlOpper, the most anti-union of the anti-union pilots.

So, believe me when I say this: There is NO WAY KCR will be moving this company forward WITHOUT a unionized pilot workforce and the CBA that goes with it. Had he stayed, he may have avoided it. But he cannot avoid it now. We'll get our first TA. The first one may even be suitable for ratification by the union membership, if both sides gave it the effort it needed.

To state otherwise is either demonstrating naiveté, spreading FUD or a combination of the two.

Gotta love freedom of speech you "red eyed hack".

Read eyed hack? What?

I earned my right to free speech, did you? No worries, I paid for both of us.

I'm glad you agree on the free speech thing, but I don't know what you mean by "did you earn yours?". Also, you paid for both of us...that makes no sense either.
But as far as the union goes, KR said he would personally involve himself to resolve this issue. I read that as there being no union in the end as he doesn't see the need for a union. But you're also correct, time will tell.

Are you not smart enough to learn from History?

Kenn Ricci and his Policies left the Company once before when he was forced out the door.

What happens if next time, he just decides to leave on his own?

What protection will his Pilots then have of going through the same Hell we just experienced over the last 3-4 years?

If Kenn really cares about his Pilots as he says, he will not only institute his Pilot Friendly Policies once again, he will put those Policies in a Legally Binding Contract.

You may want to put all your faith in the Words of Ricci.

I say, put it in Writing!

Freedom is Not Free

Ricci wouldn't be coming back if he didn't think he could make a go of it. Good luck to all.

Hi!

What is the FLtOps basing policy?

I may apply, if the basing situation will work 4 me.

MCI

These were the bases for new hires: KATL, KBNA, KBOS, KBWI, KCLE, KDEN, KDFW, KEWR, KIAH, KIND, KLAX, KLAS, KMCI, KMCO, KMIA, KORD, KPHX, KSFO, KSTL. The last ad the company put out for new hires indicated that there are 30 bases although management has not provided a list of these bases to anyone. When we get our contract, I suspect home basing for current employees and at lease 75 bases for new hires.

Really??? You don't think his ego may have a little bit to do with him coming back?? He started FLOPS, got shown the door and then got asked back in, of course he is going to say yes. He is now the white knight riding in to save the day, all his past sins are forgiven. I wish all the FLOPS guys luck also, I just don't think Ricci is the answer.
