SWA culture!

[General Lee]

I love the fact that you have no idea what you are talking about. Watch and learn Gen. You're going to be amazed.

RF

No I am not. You will be amazed, since you and others on here are unfamiliar with how the rest of the industry, and SLIs work. Your union will have to give in big time in order to NOT get arbitration. If your NC would do that, then they would get hung by the rest of you, so they won't do that. That will lead them to the arbitration option, and very recent awards do not favor what you guys suggest. So, I think you had better prepare for the surprise of your life, because it just won't be pretty. It really will be amazing, for the Airtran group. You guys have got to bring that cockiness level down, and this will help.

GL, you have hate in your blood for swa. It's ok though. What are you going to do when swa and AT reach a fair deal? Who will hate on then? You say we are cocky. Have you checked your self? It's all good Gen. Cocky? Every pilot is cocky, on some form or fashion. You my friend are defined as ignorant and self serving. You should lead by example not hatred.

I want it to be a fair deal. That is the point. Most of the SWA guys on here do not. They are the ones that have treated the Airtran posters like 2nd class citizens. That aint right. So, anything other than a staple (which wouldn't happen anyway) is a loss for most of the SWA pilots on here. They don't see value in a merger initiated by their own CEO. If GK saw something, then it must be good for the whole, right? Everyone else could agree with that. SLIs are a fact of life, and plenty of SWA pilots on here don't want to see reality.

What I am looking forward to is the reaction from THOSE particular pilots to the eventual SLI. I think your company will do very well after the merger, and that is great. But, some of the SWA posters on FI need a bit of humility, and they will get it. No hatred, rather anticipation of a reality check. That's it.

GL, if Delta was acquiring AAI, and you had AAI posters telling you that they were hoping/expecting for relative seniority in the SLI, then your reaction would not be unlike SWA posters'.

And before you make the argument that SWA and delta are not equal, they are far closer to each other in breadth and market power than aai is to either. And making the argument that SWA's CEO thinking the acquisition will be a great move for the company is an indication that the two are equals is a nonsequitor.

Fly,

I don't see anyone on here from AirTran talking SLI expectations, much less calling for or expecting anything. What IS happening is the constant berating of AirTran pilots. Other than that we all love each other.

Cheers.

Oh, man, pass the popcorn. . . . .

A hypothetical merger between Star-bellied Sneetches and the Double-breasted Navy Guys . . . . . This should be good. :laugh:

I am thinking that's the problem with the general aka OY6 . His hate towards SWA is do to SWA pilots **** his wife. Her LBB days and now ATL days

I did. Ty, specifically.

And it would appear that the SWA folks are the recipients of the beratings. Just look on the last few pages, courtesy of gl, oys, et al.

Speaking personally, I have plenty of love. Having love to give does not preclude me from defending SWA pilots against accusations of elitism.

Let's see it, buddy. Do a search. Show me something with a 2011 date on it.

I haven't discussed my SLI expectations since the MC/NC asked both pilot groups to refrain from it.

Go get your own website and restrict access. That is the best advice I can give you, because I will comment when I feel like it.

I can't speak for Ty, but I don't recall him specifically stating what the AirTran pilot group was or was not willing to accept with regard to SLI. Furthermore, I don't recall him (nor anyone else for that matter) specifically stating what type of SLI they would or wouldn't accept. I have seen scenarios and conjecture, but that's the extent of it.

As far as the bashing is concerned, you're referencing DL pilots, not AirTran pilots. You certainly have to acknowledge that all of these quasi SLI threads are full of AirTran bashing comments.

Peace.

General,

On this subject of SW/AAI SLI, you have absolutely no idea of what you are talking about. There are alot of things going on behind the scenes that you are clueless about.

I don't think any SW pilots are worried about arbitration at all. Gary won't let this sink 40 years of progress and profits. No cockiness, just the facts. Sorry they don't line up with your Spin.
