SWA/Airtran Process Agreement??

[texman]

It has taking a few days, but I found out who the real GL is. I can't belive who he is. Why be this way GL?

 

[redflyer65]

Because he and OYS are pissed that the Southwest guys have so much fun everyday while making bank...on a narrow body. Especially making more than all their widebody guys. They will continue to spin every possible angle to elevate the bankrupt Delta, but in the end the facts are the facts....get over it.

Face it, you will be at the bottom of your combined list, and Airtran 717 FOs will be senior to you, meaning you will miss Xmas again, for the next five years thanks to the stagnation due to lack of scheduled retirements. But, your pay is good, for now. (that's what the AT 717FO who is one number senior to you just said)

On Your Six, or should I say "General Lee", why do you insist on bothering me? You're not interesting. A little flame-bait here and there is fun and adds to the discussion, but you're like the guy at the bar that tells one story, everyone smiles, so he thinks they're interested in listening to him all night.

Delta is a fine airline, the B757/767 are fine airplanes and international destinations are nice. Repeating that 1,400 times gets my creep factor up.

Delta pilots have been made fun of my entire professional career, the Plato thing, the psychologist interviewer that offed himself, the inability to negotiate something as simple as jumpseats made your airline "nice" but "kinda full of people you wouldn't want to hang out with".

Now, on the opposite side, there isn't anyone here who doesn't think, "If I got stuck on an overnight with two Southwest crews I would probably have an absolute riot and come home with stories to tell". So...stick-up-the-butt-boring, or a hoot. We chose hoot, you chose unpleasant and uptight. To be honest, you chose correctly.

Don't go away mad, just go type your novel, or make a contribution to your local newspaper, or the ALPA newsletters. Do some church charity work, they always need writers. Get cracking on saving some orphans, or stopping human trafficking.

Seriously, you're not as irritating as you are boring. As I've mentioned before, I kind of like this site, the AirTran guys write really well, the Southwest guys seem ok, and you and your alter ego bore me to tears.

Radar, I mean GUP, you need to get over yourself, and get a new Fonzi jacket. The locals in MAF think you look cool, but that is the only place that does. You are big compared to the C152s that fly in the pattern there, but everywhere else you fly you are a small corndog that gets in the way. Nice taxi speed there, chief. Your old 737-300s look like turds in the toilet.

So, you think I am General Lee? I guess only he has a disdain for cocky pilots who will shortly get their rears handed to them by an arbitration panel. That will be fun to watch. While I wish I had his seniority, I think I can have my own voice on this board, and I will continue to do so. So, time to wipe up your tears and save them for your SLI announcement. I have popcorn ready, and can't wait.

Excuse me, the title of this thread is.........

SWA/Airtran Process Agreement??

Do you work for either SWA or AirTran? If not please move along, nothing to read here.

How many takeoff's and landings did you have this month?
Better yet, how many takeoff's and landings did you have without going off the end of the runway?:laugh:
Based on the answer to the first question, you are under paid, by ALOT!
See ya later sport. Enjoy all those legs, and bragging about your pay. Thanks to you guys, it's the new low in sub par wages.

That's really the best you've got? Really?

Who cares how many legs we do a day, I typically do 2-4. I'm just finally calling you guys out on your anti-Southwest rants. It's about money and how pissed you are that you aren't making top pay right now. I'm not hating on Delta, I hope you guys get your pay up but you and OYS are just being childish about this. GET OVER IT DUDE.

OYS keeps saying how DL will be back on top soon, mysteriously exactly just as the General says. Honestlly, I don't see DALPA being able to make up that much ground in this environment. I predict a contract extension with COLA raises only, if you don't think that's the way your future negotiations will go, you have your head in the sand. Too help bring you back to reality, review your massive 1st quarter loss.

Good Luck.

Not gonna happen buddy. I'll tell you one more time..I have zero concerns about this SLI. But for some reason you seem to have some problems with it. Sounds more like a personal problem to me.

In the end, both SW and AAI pilots will be fine. And both bringing it to your hub in ATL.

 

[Cobraair75drvr]

The only thing your bringing to ATL is a different paint job. Oh, and higher paid employees. Personally, I think it will be a good thing for Delta pilots in three ways. One, a competitor in our sandbox that pays more (no more of our mgmt. pointing at AAI), two lock up gates to keep the real low cost types(virgin, frontier/republic) from having a chance and three force them to use more mainline aircraft vs rjs to lower our seat mile cost.

Well stated. And just remember, I am not annoying, I am persistant.

Oy6...what did you do between UAL and that Corporate job?

Oy6...what did you do between UAL and that Corporate job?

I was only out a few months from UAL, and I knew someone in the corporate flight department. I flew the corporate job until getting hired here. I flew there for a long time, and saw places that were interesting, but the 24/7 beeper thing aint for me.

I heard the same thing when we started BWI service. And Denver. And Phoenix.
