so what's new
That's the East/USAPA mantra – bankruptcy before accepting the Nicola award. Management continues to milk the discord to the last day and the East guys are playing in the band. When the company goes into CH 11 again, there will be no comin’ out, hello CH 7. The 2500 East pilots will drag the other 26,000 employees down with them. The West is powerless to stop it since the East controls the union, truly the last time, there will be nobody else to blame. With the DFR language (USAPA is guilty) being finalized in Judge Wake’s court now; the East will be scrambling to put a good face on it. There is no reasoning with the East, the Majority out there has given up control to the angry few and further degradation in the work rules and pay are sure to follow, there will be no new contract in this environment, the Kirby modest increase is just a pipe-dream now. Bankruptcy III for the new US Airways. How sad for what was a great opportunity in May 2005 … 4 years ago. Thanks for nothing USAPA.
