Pinnacle Buying Colgan

[The Drizzle]

They are getting screwed if that is the case. Look at Shuttle/CHQ integration. The shuttle guys got hosed! Allegheny-Mohawk is not the greatest way to integrate!

If this is true... A screwin is a comin!

yeah, so hosed. job security, growth, oh and look most are starting to be able to upgrade. must be real rough.

What do you suppose this will do to the stock price?

If this deal is indeed true, it will create the midwest's biggest sweatshop in history! Mesa here we come...

As a fellow linker, welcome Colgan boyz. If you think your screw scheduling is bad, just magnify it 10 times, and plus the memphis attitude and while you're put to hold for 10 minutes listening to nothing but elvis, you'll know what i mean...

PS: Oh, btw, we even have screw planning to help screw with scheduling to screw up your QOL... Wow, that's a lot of "screw" in 1 sentence.

Welcome aboard!!

CAN YOU SAY " BIGSKY MESABA" There is always a way around the law. Case in point... The current Bankruptcy laws. They are going to to to bang you guys just like they are trying to bang us. We have this thing called the Bigsky scope at Mesaba. If a judge overrules it, do you actually expect managment to stick by it... Hell No. Good luck.

I personally will welcome all of Colgan guys (we as pilots have nothing to do with these decisions), but does anyone have an idea of how this could possibly good for the Pinnacle pilot group?

Done deal!

So let me get this straight, we were given a deadline of March 31st to get a pilot contract done by nwa or we would lose the 17 planes we are getting back. We have not had any negotiation sessions since october, but instead, our management is out buying an airline so they don't have to negotiate to get growth. I am going to listen to the webcast to see whats up, but I am pretty sure we are going to get screwed. I now don't expect a pilot contract for another 3 years. What does it take for a vote of no confidence?

 

[Ridgeback]

A vote of no confidence? Are you kidding? What do you think that's going to accomplish, ask the Mesaba guys? Until the day comes when we as a pilot group have more balls than teacher, plumber, bus driver, ect unions we are ALL talk. We my friends are a JOKE!!!
