NWA Retirements

[FDJ2]

This message is hidden because FDJ2 is on your ignore list.

I guess I've finally had enough. Toxic.

Bye, Bye! Funny you had no problem supporting toxic and misguided rhetoric in the past. Comments which suggested "back door deals" , throwing NWA pilots under the bus and supporting the idea that Prater should refuse to sign a duly ratified ALPA TA.

All those charges, no doubt fueled by your MEC's discreditted publication "Just the Facts", have been proven to be incorrect.

Seems like a double standard for toxic rhetoric.

The Delta MEC resolution on April 14th committed the Delta pilots to seek pay parity for you at DCC. We kept our promise, despite the misguided rhetoric directed towards us.

Enjoy the pay raise.

Nice!! Any more jerk-off comments?

Come on man, FDJ2 is not a jerk. He stated correctly that Dalpa has gone the extra mile so far to bring you up to parity, and to offer something fair, considering what we both bring to the table. Your redbooks and greenbooks are still fighting it out, and want to bring that toxicity to our list, with ridiculous DOH and dynamic proposals. FDJ2 is actually very well regarded at our company, and you now are a part of it as well. If EXAf doesn't want to read FDJ2 posts, then it is his loss.

Bye Bye--General Lee

Only problem I have with that is USAIR International flying was factual! DALPA's and your agrument that the 9's are or were going away as a stand alone is per speculation(I know the MEMO said so)! As for the delay with the 787 you really think they are going to furlough, pay to type the furloughs in the 175 and then bring them back in a year! Those are firm orders they are coming just like your additional 777's. Just think its alot of speculation to go ahead and staple 400 nwa pilots to the bottum! You may get a ratio like you want, have a hard time believing they will tag a staple on top of it!

That wasn't the plan at all. We are still very short on MD88 FOs, and you are fat in a lot of your categories due to overstaffing for the mythical 787. We were planning to use some of your bottom guys on the MD88 after a short 2 week indoc (seperate certificates dictate that), and bring them in on the bottom if they were going to get furloughed on the NWA side. That was the plan. We actually stopped hiring or the process of restarting it because we were trying to determine if we needed to help you guys. I am not making this up. It may still happen, I guess we'll see after Dec 8th. And, if we do get ratios based on airplane types (widebody Capt, FO, Narrowbody Capt, FO, and then the DC9), there very well may be a lot of DC9 FOs on the bottom. It is the smallest plane we have, that will be replaced by 76 seaters, and it pays the least. I am not trying to make you mad, but rather informing you of how it may shake out.

General, it is kind of like screaming at water, isn't it?

I agree, SO Pointless! I cant wait until Dec 8th is here so we can stop hearing about these "how it should be posts." Hopefully sooner rather than later we can start working together instead of trying to cut the other off at the knees.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

Agree brother.
You off for the holiday?

Nevermind, FBN. You're full of crap or just don't really know what you're talking about. I spoke with said 9E pilot.

It's probably more on the lines of I don't what I am talking about. I thought he said Pinnacle. Of course, being that he is a Delta pilot, in a Delta uniform, with a Delta ID, his previous employer was not the hot topic. I do know he was a 2007 new-hire at Delta. I thought he was a nice guy. I do also know that all three of us talked a little about the SLI. He did say that the Delta proposed list put him senior to NWA 99 hires and sure enough, he is correct. I do also know his name but am not going to spout it off on this board or PM anyone on "who's who." The guy was a good dude who had some points and he remains anonymous as do all of us.

Hey, it is nice that you are being nice, and I am not trying to be mean here. I like to debate, and I see a lot of reason for it here. ...

Bye Bye--General Lee

All this civility is killing me. I mean "moron" is the worst thats popped up.

When is the arbitrated list due out? Dec 8? Then we can see some real sweet nothings being bantered about among ALPA brothers.

Bye Bye--General Grant
