WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Efforts by United Airlines, a unit of UAL Corp (NasdaqGS:UAUA - News), and Continental Airlines (NYSE:CAL - News) to reach a joint contract agreement with their pilots before concluding their merger have hit a snag, pilots said on Friday.
Negotiations have stalled over undisclosed issues that would have little financial impact on the new company, the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) said in a statement. The union said the companies "are headed down the wrong path" regarding the contract talks.

Does it have to do with SCOPE? Don't give in boys! Hold it steady! The pay will come (along with bonuses for Tilton and Sismiek(?)), but trust me---getting scope BACK is tough to do. We know all about that. Don't give in, and please keep the 70 seaters away or let them go when their (contractor) contracts are up. Good luck!
Bye Bye--General Lee
