Madam Cleo might have been referring to him as the "Howard" mentioned in previous posts.

Did they hire Howard to rearrange the deck chairs?

Howard was Duane Woerth's right hand man.....ALPA's executive administrator....

ALPA is a great stepping stone for airline management...He was a fairly young NWA pilot....Why would he make the jump?

Did you work with him Occam? What are your thoughts?

Why hasn't PCL_128 chimed in yet? I'm sure he will say he's a stand up guy, just doing whats best for him

Howard was not a popular guy in the ALPA ranks. If UAL hired him to create a better relationship with the pilots I have one thing to say, "Good luck with that."

How is it that a someone who "was not a popular guy in the ALPA ranks", managed to be the number 2 guy in ALPA for 8 years? Something does not compute.....

The same way Dick Cheney is the number 2 guy in the United States... and how well has that worked out?!

Yes.

Good man.

Will do fine. Like anyone else who's taken a stand on a issue (or issues), someone will dislike him.

Has good mediation skills.

He was an LEC rep, then MEC S/T during our strike, and then Duane's E.A.

Opposed Age 65.
