I think I know what it is and hope to God that it fails. Calls won't help this one because the southern confederate flag bases are hell bent on it. Hope it does not happen, but people should not put anything past this group here.

You'd never think the South was in France would you?

 

[samballs]

You guys seem to get the idea, the south is way in France, as of noon today they were excited about having the votes. I hope in the following days you guys can call me a liar, but my source is as good of a source as a source can be

Are you related to SEVEN by any chance? Which regional doesn't suck?

But my regional is better than yours anyday, anytime, now and forever!

Read more, post less. You're new and need to figure out how it works here at FI. It's really too bad you've already wasted $10.




eP.

Feel better now? Mr. Toughguy hiding behind a computer screen? I can understand your frustrations, good luck with your upgrade in 2020.

I love it, you keep calling people tough guy. Yet I get the feeling without the screen between us you would be ducking your head passing by me.

the only things i can think of are
The are allowing dual qualification without a vote (pinnacle is starting DTW-MTY) with the 900 in July - they would love to throw a reserve on that one
They are forcing another TA
They are allowing a 2 for 1 trade with delta with aircraft

Don't know what you mean.

 

[i fly boxes]

will someone please just say what it is?

One of your guesses might be right, but I can't tell you which.

On a totally unrelated note, the word "forcing" could also be used to say "to take whatever the company offers".

But that last tip has nothing to do with our cloak and dagger conversation.

 

[Smarta$$]

I don't think it will carry though, but they will try. One of our northern MEC members had to leave town for a family emergency. They are possibly trying to take advantage of that situation, but another northern MEC member has his vote proxy.

 

[i fly boxes]

so we aren't going to hear anything tonight or tomorrow then i would think. If they are trying to force the TA, wasnt there something in the scope section of the one we voted down that permitted Colgan flying for Delta with q 400's. Given the news that delta is getting rid of the saabs and Colgan has 15 Q's with no customer coming in 2011 could this be a reason? Just my thoughts here no rumour.

Hey SEVEN, whats your beef against Pinnacle? All your posts show nothing but negative comments against 9E. It's just another regional like Mesaba.

A decent ammount of unprofessional and irresponsible pilots. This stems from numerous accidents and incidents over the last few years. Just a personal opinion I have formed along with many others based on facts, statistics, and past personal experience I have seen from 9E. I am not going to rehash past posts and threads but if you do any in depth research on the company, you'll see what I mean. Folks that disagree with me have their own opinion....and that's fine. I, along with many others have mine. Just a few....MKE crj off roading, Montana TAWS event, TVC overrun, Jefferson MO, highest violations in DCA on departure a few years back, Type 4 deice fluid for enroute icing, and can keep going but I would be here all night. I always take heat from a few 9E pilots on here for my opinion, but I don't care. I have seen enough from that company over the years to form a rational opinion about the company. End of story. And no, it's not just another regional like Mesaba. Mesaba has a 100% safety record. No fatalities in the history of the airline. And Mesaba is the oldest regional operating in the country. There are certain places I would work and wouldn't work. Pinnacle is a place I would not work. There are better places to get used and abused.

Didn't you guys (Mesaba) blow out the windows of a bus doing a cross bleed at the gate and put a plane off the runway just in the last year in DTW?

Ok enough he said she said, back to the rumor, are you guys saying that they are going to tell the negotiation committee to accept anything, or has there actually been a forced TA #2?

[samballs]

HE did the simple thing of getting involved, all at 9e should follow his lead

I worked at skyway for the MKE thing, and was in terminal when it happened. That was by far the best story yet

There are some MEC members who simply want to accept what ever the company is graciously willing to give us. They are from the confederate bases and will probably fail, I hope.

 

[PCL_128]

A reliable source tells me that this rumor is bogus. Nothing unusual going on tonight with the PCL MEC. Just a benign conference call.

Did your reliable source tell you that there was in fact a movement to do so? But I agree that it is probably not going to happen tonight.
