SLI is out, it looks good for both sides

[SkiFishFly]

I think the Delta pilots know this is merger is good for their next round of contract talks. Management will no longer be able to lay AAI pay rates on the table as a comparison.

Any bets as to when the Airtran Pilots forum comes back? I'm guessing not until after our MEC meets in secret so that arms can be twisted to try to prevent a vote of the pilot group.

OBTW - Swapaluv.com has senority list and agreement side letter.

Of course you'd say vote it down, who wants most of the Airtran FOs to make more than the Delta captains! And, oh the irony, now every Airtran captain will make more than Delta captains flying 777s to Europe and Asia. Yeah, I'd get on here too if I was a Delta pilot and rail against this deal. No way I'd want to walk around ATL knowing that the former Airtran 3 stripper is making more than a bunch of the Delta 4 strippers...

I'll take Delta then. 4 strippers are always better than 3. Remember to tip.

Wow, this is a as close to a staple as you can get. If this is approved by the AT MEC I see another lawsuit as per TWA.

Especially in Sao Paolo!!!

Yet not a single capt loses his seat. 2+2=5

 

[Secret Squirrel]

There will be lawsuits either way.

 

[SkiFishFly]

Who are they going to sue? The MC? Their fellow pilots who vote to approve it?

My guess is if the ATN MEC blocks it there will be lawsuits and recalls.

Well played, my bad!

I just said that I wouldn't bet, and you're trying to get me to bet? Sorry, but I'll pass. It really could go either way.

$20 says you'll change your mind.

Sounds like both sides are equally pissed off. I guess it must be fair. I vote Yes, and lets move on.

If Daddy Gary decides to sweeten the deal by paying us at DOS, then I think all my Tranny peoples will be happy.

Oh so now you want them to act as leaders?
They never have and never will. They don't know the meaning of the word.

Never too late to start.

I'm hearing later today.

There are going to be lawsuits either way. That's unavoidable.

 

[waveflyer]

are you a 4 digit wave?

Haha- yes - just playing the 8x,xxx on the Internet for entertainment. But without that signing bonus it'll be tough to stock the 60' catamaran with kettle one, wild turkey and a new Harley. I want my ketel one!

 

[BlueBlood]

It's Ketel One, dummy. Unless you are drinking a knock off of the original Ketel One

All I need is a 46' Hatteras and some beer and some bait.
