SWA to have a third aircraft?!?

[texman]

All I care about is the MSL. Keep ATL, all the international stuff, and your seat in ATL.LOL

 

[SWA/CA]

That an airline can just wholesale abrogate someone's longevity and change it at any time they wish?

Yes

There is nothing I want more than to have a great company after this is over. I have not flown with or talked with one person that wishes to "screw" the AT pilots. Every SWA pilot I talk to is concerned about this deal. No one is excited!!! That speaks volumes......

I agree, this has been my observation too.

Nobody said you will not get it but it is something that SWA will decide not you or any laws that you seem to be quoting.

An arbitrator is only concerned about seniority. Everything else is negotiated

 

[SWA/FO]

bump! What do you think about them apples? Just wondering

You're more than welcome to contact the webmaster and put in a request to moderate. More help would be appreciated, as it's getting kind of old, the same old idiots who keep violating the ToS, even though they *KNOW* things are violations of the ToS.

Then again, I'm getting a little "punchy" and probably need to take a FI vacation for a little while. The hostility I'm seeing on here every day probably has more than a little to do with it... :/

You're actually not as bad as the other one clr4. That dude has a serious case of napoleon syndrome.
If you want to have the respect of a moderator, then you should completely remove yourself from anything AAI related (mod or just regular poster), because you've proven time and time again you can't do both.
I wouldn't want to clean up this joke of a web board. Let's face it, whoever let it get out of control, it is waaaay out of control. There is no real information exchanged here, and most people use this board as a place to vent/bitch/insult/whatever. point is, long time ago when you had the chance to nip this thing in the bud, you (or whoever decided to let the flamming/insults go on as long as it didn't violate TOS) didn't, and now it's out of control, and this forum is a laughing stock. Now, to try and clean it up is a joke, and you and your cohort clr4 are flexing your muscles, and being taunted for it. Did you know, he banned me for no reason. His reason-------> ask and ye shall recieve. When I said I thought I would get banned for talking about him as a moderator.
Just an opinion. Do what you want with this post, as I'm sure you will.
Best.

This part is exactly correct, and any fences might come from the aribitor as well.

Another CA that is right, great!! :bawling:
:beer: 1-2-3!

Midge, I've only been moderating for a little over a year, this board got way out of hand LONG before that, and is why the other boards saw a large up-tick in their membership roles.

Yes, it makes it harder to bring the board back to civility, although I think this board is pretty useful for information, just have to sift through the crap to get to useful things (posts past page 3 or 4 usually go downhill pretty quickly and contain less and less useful data).

As for the rest, well, don't know what tell you, except that I believe I have a right to my opinion, as does everyone else on here, as long as it's communicated respectfully and within the ToS, which is why I removed myself from moderating these discussions. It's definitely a thankless job, and probably why mods don't usually last more than a year or two before they take a hiatus or quit completely...

Lear:
Thanks for the civil response (something not usually found here).
I guess I didn't get my point across. No matter what you do, as a moderator, you're going to be crucified because of your MODERATOR status. Of course you can comment on any thread, but you'll be chastized as someone who's, "flexing his MOD status," does that make sense?
Seriously, good luck in your merger with Southwest, you guys when all this stuff is worked out will be one powerful airline.
