Why would the company offer "just interviews" when they can set up a non-union alter-ego carrier and play us against each other? Search this site for the Freedom/Mesa saga. I am not trying to stir the pot. I am just trying to get people thinking, here. You don't think RTS is capable of such a thing?

Why would RTS do that... The union carrier already is far and away the cheapest labor force in the industry. If he interviews in the pilots he gets them in at the bottom $ price. Thats what he did with the EJM pilots we took almost 2 yrs ago... after he furloughed them from EJM. Huge paycuts for those boys.

Anyway, it was just reported that Management was asked this directly and the answer is this aint happening.

Depends on what your definition of "this" is. Anyway, management lies and that is why most airlines have unions. It's going to happen, that is why you see 800XPs and 400Xps all over the country painted pure white. Like I said a long time ago, NJA takes those airplane while F/O sells the old stuff and away we go. It's just business, that's all. Why else would Raytheon give NJA a better deal on 400XPs than it would to F/Os? Not to mention the maintenance contracts. Welcome to aviation, better have a union to protect yourself from guys like Publishers.

Please give me the detailed comparison between the deal that NJA got vs. FLOPS on the 400s.

You folks crack me up. The "pure white" is only because of the FAA. There were problems with 3M decals being used as stripes. This has nothing to do with these empty rumors. Not to mention that there are very old straight 800's and Citation III's that are white after going through the paint shop. Is NJA interested in our 800's and C3's? BA HA HA HA HEE HEE HEE HOH HOH YUK YUK!

If you think that then Janet Reno is training gay communist aliens to fly black helicopters for the UN and the recent hurricanes are Clinton's fault.

Now thats the first true thing I have seen in this thread.

What is the name of the actor who played Janet Reno in Mel Gibson's movie the Patriot? You know the one who burned down the church with live people inside.

Spell it out loud 1, 2, 3,.......S T R I K E ....Its criminal what Santuli and Buffet have done to you guys and gals. Absolute crap!

Take a frickin stand and start putting adds out about the crap pay and work rules! Time to educate the customer who has been paying for your propsed raise for 2 plus years.

Nice job Sangooli and Buffet...paying people to fly left seat for 39k is BS!!!!

Excellent post! I'd just make a slight modification. Let's give SU--the soon to be official, new MEC--a well-deserved vote of confidence by giving them a chance to fight for the pilots before calling for a strike. I firmly believe that they will not hesitate to recommend a strike if that is determined to be in the best interest of the pilot group.
