SWAPA might like SWA proposal

[DonVerita]

If SWAPA will not allow any "harm" to come to any SWAPA pilot, why on Earth would anyone from SWAPA think that ATN ALPA would not demand the same thing for their pilots?

FACT: The ATN MEC has R-E-J-E-C-T-E-D the SWA Management SLI proposal. That means that it will not go out to the ATN pilot group for a vote, and rightly so. They won't send an unequitable and unfair proposal to our pilot group to vote on. Why would they? To waste time seeing it get voted down? Then we start over with a slightly better proposal and it too gets voted down. Where does it end?

The ATN MEC and MC will send us a proposal at some point that they feel is respectful of our pilot group if there is one to be had. If not, then we're all headed to federal arbitration where this will be settled by a neutral 3rd party. As I've stated time and time again, I have no problem with that.

Weren't you saying that the offer from GK would be a one time deal? That he doesn't negotiate? in life, everything's a negotiation.

Good luck with that.

I predict Southwest will start hiring soon!

The simple fact is that no matter how this turns out the AAI pilots will win over the long term.

winning the battle of getting one list is different than winning the war and becoming a SWA employee.

Maybe it's just me, but when the CEO of the company that just bought you calls a meeting and subsequently makes a proposal, I would think there's more to it than just "negotiations as usual". Who knows?

If not, then we're all headed to federal arbitration where this will be settled by a neutral 3rd party.

Well, the friendly tone lasted about 20 hours, arbitration gets you a list, nothing more, go check it out. Good luck with that.

According to some reports, senior FO's at aai would lose close to 32 % under the latest proposal that didn't make it out for a vote....

Have made an acceptable
Proposal.

That is so laughable as to be sad that you can actually put that in print. Wake up.
