US Air, AMR Merger "within weeks"


Can hordes of locusts be far behind?

Chaos. Mayhem. Disaster.

Monkey and a football springs to mind....

Come on! Just like Mongo like candy, monkey like football! Must be true because they keep trying to copulate...

I'd bet APA files for single carrier with the NMB on the same day the POR is filed. They can't shed USAPA fast enough (no one can).

Very true.

And I will be amused by MCDU's reaction when the arbitrators use the Nicolau list to represent the Airways pilots in the SLI. Seven years of working under a concessionary contract while demanding date of hire shot to hell....

My friend at AA has said to me that APA already plans on using the Nic for the SLI.

On the Allied Pilots Association members only website, it shows that all furloughees and Eagle flow-throughs will be on AA property by June.

(This does not include people who deferred or those on a Military Leave of Absence)

It also shows that the training academy plans to ramp up production from 50 per month to 70-80 per month starting in August.

They will have to hire someone to fill those classes.

Of course, things could change with a merger. But, either way, they will still need to hire in the near future.

I guess that's why AA has absolutely 0 links to an application portal on their website?

The MOU states that they will file for single carrier within 4 months. My guess is more like 4 hours. Then they can shed all the protocols that tied them to USAPA and unilaterally implement M-B SLI. Why would they want to wait to get their hands on the USAPA bank balance and deal with the Cleary peanut gallery that will try to obstruct whatever they can to fulfill their never-ending quest for importance?

Actually I think the M-B will be close enough to NIC to be practically indistinguishable, which of course will rile the USAPA faithful. What those clowns fail to realize is that they will never mount a successful legal defense (i.e.Leonidas) becasue they will have a rapidly dwindling number of supporters as they retire. I am sure APA has assessed the threat they pose and will act accordingly.
