NWA - 70% yes 30% no

Don't care, long as it passes. I'm betting 60+% on the DAL side.

 

[PeanuckleCRJ]

Ya'll actually think Anderson or Steenland give two sh*ts about what your numbers are about the JCBA?

This merger is happening even if the numbers were at 0% and 0%.

Ding! We have a winner. Johnny, tell him what he's won!!!!

Our lucky Peaknuckle right seater has won a lifetime supply of aviation career misery! And that's not all!!! He'll be joined by hundreds of other flyboys and girls who thought airline flying would be a lifetime of long layovers and six figure salaries!!!!

You act like this is some miraculous prophetic statement. EVERYONE has known this for months!

Dude, my decidedly better half is a 12 year Red Tail. We've known this was coming since the day both companies filed BK in the same courthouse on the same day. Didn't exactly take Carnac...

Dude, that was exactly my point. Thanks for proving it!

The lifetime supply of aviation career misery was here when you mainline Delta boys thought you were too good for the little CRJ jets, and farmed/scoped them out to protect flying heavy metal for senior guys.

As far as 6-figure salaries, look at yourselves in the mirror for having taken huge concessions to "save" the airline, only to have management pocket millions upon millions of bonuses. Thanks for your hard efforts! Though I can't blame you much there. The Bush administration NMB elected officials will never release any group into self-help. To make matters worse, pro-company judges will stop workers from having the right to strike once the airline enters bankruptcy and decides to throw out labor contracts.

Be ready for the worst, hope for the best.


PS... I'm not miserable, I'm happy with my life right now.
