Only three pages? C'mon flightinfo, this thread had 500+ posts written all over it.

I remember the good old days.

Question for those in the know: USAPA is no longer the US pilot's CBA. This is fact. How can the courts claim DFR from a NOW super-ceded CBA?
The 3 merger committees are west/east/AA pilots. How does an injunction play against an autonomous committee now represented by the APA? Not USAPA.
Could this lead to another declaratory judgement this time on behalf of the APA? The mandate is ambiguous at best.

Just "spit-ballin'", BUT the appeal was for the DFR case in Judge Silver's court WHEN USAPA was the agent. 9th will hand down to Silver to REVERSE the ruling, AND consider court costs and possibly DAMAGES. How much is that? Further, Judge Conrad is considering what to do with USAPA & it's funds.

Oh, BTW....Not showing up for an arbitration that you agree to is NOT A PLAN. It's more like a "Hail Mary". You should read the last two days transcripts from the SLI panel.

I don't think damages are going to be considered with the 9th. They just mentioned attorney fees which should be in the range of 100k. However the separate litigation in NC with Judge Conrad has the potential to award damages. It also names 14 USAPA officers personally. Hopefully those reps will be personally responsible for the millions of dues money that was misspent. It would be poetic justice if the USAPA braintrust was bankrupted for their actions of the last 8 years...

But the case has been remanded to Judge Silver to "consider the West Pilots' claim for attorneys' fees". It does not specifically bar Judge Silver from looking at ALL expenditures for all litigation for DFR. It does not specifically bar Judge Silver from considering damages related to the now ripe DFR.

Further, Judge Conrad is crafting his order for the disgorgement of dues.

We'll see.

Did I hear correctly that the tail scrape in CLT was a.......wait for it.....West Crew? Nah, couldn't be. Aren't they the ones that that fly flawlessly 24/7, and have to endlessly criticize the East's flying abilities?

Ha ha ha ha ha ha

 

[Ocity]

So when does the APA get the welcome news that the Federal Courts will be slapping them with the Nic award too? Binding on ALPA, USAPA, APA, and whatever RLA Bargaining agents to follow. It's called Status Quo. The Eastholes never learned that...until now I guess.

 

[Golden Falcon]

wouldn't have been Easties in CLT...they make sure and crash there, and both ends of La Guardia...

 

[Lampshade]

Judge Conrad just chimed in today with an injunction to stop USAPA from spending anymore money. Another major hit to USAPA... been a great week.

Well, there's this:

And then there's always the brilliance of living under LOA 93 and being paid MESA wages for years. This obviously makes them the smartest guys in the industry! :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Yeah, we know about all of that. What we didn't know was that the west has the ability to screw the pooch too. Well, that and the fact that they are a bunch of no hires who couldn't get on anywhere else. No wonder why they are spending money like crazy to ensure their place, can't get it any other way.

Fact? Says who? You? Some usapa supporting doosh bag?
You might wanna look at the $$ usapa spent over the last decade!
Living under LOA 93 for a decade making less than a Mesa pilot, in fact, makes them the biggest morons of the industry.
Yeah, US Airways is where everyone wants to be! Thanks for the laugh little guy.

Kind of humorous, really, to this outsider. Why would any arbitration group abrogate the decision of another arbitrator. APA, which handily dwarfs USAPA, could give a rats a** what the minority thinks. They will comply with binding arbitration, as required, which will incorporate the previous BINDING arbitration. The Easties (and Westies too) will have absolutely no say in the matter.

USAPA will get out-USAPA'd by APA. Poetic justice, don't you think?

Of course, if I were king of the world, Eastholes would pay for all litigation expenses and lost wages resulting from their failure to adhere to the BINDING arbitration to which they agreed - along with punitive damages just for being, well, Eastholes.
