Nic award can not be used if the USAIR pilots do not like it. It will be seperate ops forever or DOH with C and R.
3 things need to happen under ALPA merger policy and one did not. A joint contract , with each side having to agree. There was no timeline in getting a joint contract. East would vote every contract down that would have included the Nic. No way are you going to get more the 50% of real USAIR pilots to vote for a joint contract with the NIC. You might find 5%.

ALPA=Nic award
Alpa is gone now. ALPA has failed to implement the list by its own merger policy that includes a joint contract. A joint contract was impossible with the Nic award. Thats why Delta and Northwest did that ahead of the award. It could have been the same gridlock. Delta learned that it was imperative to get a joint contract. Otherwise one group could vote never to implement a list.

If you can read and understand english...like an ATP ought to, then you should be able to read the court orders issued from Judge Wake.

It's obvious that the Judge sees through all of your sides petty B.S.. The Addington case is going to remove any ability for USAPA to hide behind some procedural loophole that was never intended to be used as such. USAPA has gone all in and painted you all into a corner.

In other words, the Nicalau award will eventually BE THE SENIORITY LIST THAT YOU LIVE WITH THE REST OF YOUR CAREER AT US AIRWAYS. There is no place left to hide...you guys are simply to far outside of the law.

I suggest you start looking for another job. When the reality of Federal Law, Addington, and the DFR hit you like a speeding freight train, you're going to find life at AAA unbearable. Get out now while you still, (may) have a shred of sanity.

Oddly enough, I'm starting to feel sorry for you...

You lost binding arbitration that you agreed to. Deal with it. Do you complain to the casino dealers when you don't get 21 in Blackjack? You gamble, then take it. Otherwise, you are sore losers and babies.

did once, the pit boss checked the cards and they watched the tapes. I was so drunk she took 3 black jacks from me, without me knowing.
 
This is just one more failure to put on ALPA. It is also Nic's fault for making a list that is ridiculously unfair. The East guys knew it was unfair from the beginning and as time goes on, it becomes even more unfair.

Are you off your meds again? Remember, you aren't even a pilot.
Don't worry about what the LCC east vs. west are doing. Stick to flying turns around a point and your "gay" outings! Its what you're best at!:laugh:

Dope!
How does it feel to be the biggest retard on FI? I see you even had a thread dedicated to you.

I still think you are great, because I know that you have issues. See you at the next NGPA outing. Bring your friend PFT_128 and General Lee.

Love

Perhaps if you had any actual knowledge of the facts at the time you wouldn't be so quick to blame anybody.

Nic. knew exactly what he was doing, and the two other neutrals were in full agreement with his decision. On balance, the nic award is completely equitable to all involved.

A Federal Court is about to underscore that point.
 
USAir went from 6000 pilots in 1990 to 3500 by 2005. During this period the career progression of USAir pilots lagged the rest of the industry by a wide margin. The east pilots knew for years how far behind they were falling but the Nic. award quantified it and put it down on paper for all to see. And it looks ugly. It's very unfortunate. But the reality is by 2005 17 years' longevity at USAir got you the industry equivalent of a new-hire position. A merger with any other airline using any other arbitrator would have yielded essentially the same results.

Would you agree to binding arbitration while that drunk? Can I sell you a bridge in NYC?

Too bad. If you agree to a process, then you have to deal with it. The East MEC thought they were winning, and actually said in a memo to their people originally that they thought Nicelau was a good arbitrator. I hope the new judge completely rules on the while deal, and puts the USAPA krap to rest. Sorry Sully. You and Jeff Skiles will be middle of road seniority-wise at the new airline, since your airline was failing and had shrunk before being bought. And to top it off, you agreed to binding arbitration. Live and Learn.
