US Airways & American

[cactusboy53]

It's going to be straight DOH. The TWA pilots wanted and deserved DOH. This merger is going to happen and it will be DOH. PHX is going to be flushed to Republic and they can enjoy their relative seniority integration wtih another regional which is all AWA ever was a regional!

Nicky Baby!
How's my favorite MDA - never flew mainline - pilot? Entitlement posturing at it's very finest. Final is final, binding is binding and you still don't get what integrity means.

Have a great day. Keep clicking them ruby shoes!

Maybe West will get the arbitrated award, maybe they won't—nothing is certain.

Maybe East will merge with AMR, while West is sold to another company—nothing is certain.

Maybe US Airways will never merge and later declare bankruptcy—nothing is certain.

Nothing is certain Cactusboy.

The "PHX is being sold off to Republic" thing was last year. The Make a Wish Foundation rejected your request. Try again!

so true. with so much bad blood they might just let the seniority integration be done on management discretion.

Nope, that ship sailed. Bad blood doesn't trump an arbitration. Now they might need to take the east to Cesar Milan after thet get back from the neutering. Even the worst dog can be trained to obey. 3600 of them are no different.

My prediction is that the PBGC pressures Horton and the BK Judge to sell the airline to someone else in exchange for the contract being gutted (or LOA93'd) but freeezing the pensions so the obligation is not dumped on the PBGC. This provides a lean AMR that doesn't impact the economic recovery (sham) that Obama's reelection depends on.

Arbitrated award sits on Doug's desk. Several law firms that you interviewed, 1 Arbitrator & Two Federal Judges agree it is FINAL & BINDING (soon to be THREE FEDERAL JUDGES?). Two Federal Judges also agreed, but somehow thought it wasn't ripe (yet), but would MOST ASSUREDLY BE if a contract is voted in with something other than the NIC. QUITE CERTAIN.

There will be NO split of LCC. One certificate, one work force, one company. Pretty certain, but keep clickin' them ruby shoes.

We are making money now, and according to the company we can continue to do so (even w/ oil @ $106). You don't declare bankruptcy when you are making money. QUITE CERTAIN (as long as oil stays about or below where its at).

Death, Taxes, the Second Coming, and Mike Cleary's ability to do some of the most BLOCK-HEADED actions and communications......MOST CERTAIN ABOVE ALL. :laugh:

Listen bub, I've ben flying 73s since you were in grade school. Beautiful machine, wish I could fly it to retirement but it looks like our 73s (east) are going AWAy, just like Phoenix will be gone soon. ByBy!

Truth is, separate ops works just fine until AA comes along and kicks the rookies to the curb. Enjoy merging with republic!

BS Flag at the top of the pole! Do you ever post on something you actually know something about?

My guess is that you couldn't recognize a 737 even if given best 2 out of 3.

Listen Pops;
IF you "ben" flying 73's that long, then you and I were born in the same decade.

While your posts lead me to believe you are QUITE junior, they also lend the fact that you are an angry little man. I just got off the 73. While fun, I am quite comfortable in my new front office.

You are married to us until death do us part (or the next merger). Why don't you go and drink a nice big glass of Metamucil, and go take a terrific dump (might clear up your thinkin' cap).

Enjoy the Nic. It's just around the corner.....oops...hope you didn't pop a vein. See you in Philly! I'll buy the first round, I'll use my AARP card for a discount! :beer:

Hope these fit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p8vFs7Z7qU&feature=fvwrel

You should seek out ways to raise your emotional intelligence.

I would, but then you wouldn't be able to understand.

Sorry NIC, but you didn't have to stay at USair, you could have gone to Jetblue or Spirit a few years back and could have been senior. You now will have to live with the NIC award, and as Cactusboy states, it really is right around the corner. If AA becomes a player, the APA will abide by the NIC award (or lose a lawsuit bigtime), and if you are junior on the East side, you could be gone too. It's called reality, look into it.


Godspeed!

Ok big cheese. Mr DAL pilot, screwed the NW guys so freely. What does it take to make you understand that Spirit and jetBlue never were in the same category as USAir, a top paying major airline? Why don't you quit DAL and go to work for Spirit? Thats what I thought.
I have 20+ years at USAIr and Im not going to let the westicles steal my seniority! Period! And so far their lottery tickets are just pieces of paper that can't be cashed. The 9th smacked them down and now it will happen again. Nobody can look at DOH as unfair. Nobody. The NW guys call us all the time and say that we have a noble fight that they should have done the same thing= fight for DOH. It makes our industry right and people like you will thank us later when DAL wants to buy Spirit or North American and Spirit or North American wants to merger relative seniority.

 

[shon7]

abolish seniority.
progression based on merit only.

Your ignorance is only slightly masked by your stupidity!

My money says that you're a new hire at best. And don't take that bet nic, looking at your payrates, you can't afford it.

Is this your version of reality? You're in for a HUGE disappointment followed by foot stomping, tough talk and maybe some good ol'fashioned political infighting. Just to make you feel better. Lol !!! You should reasses your position b/c youre making a complete FOOL outta yourself. It is entertaining watching you chase your tail.

I got hired after the merger happened. But, you knew that..... I was furloughed at UAL, flew corporate, and then went to my current job. Why don't I go to Spirit now???

First of all, the two MECs here during the merger accepted binding arbitration (sounds familiar, right?), and then HONORED IT. It will now come back to bite you when you merge or when Judge Silver makes her decision shortly, which everyone already knows what will happen. Your MEC signed on the dotted line, and your 20 years will mean nothing in the end. If DAL buys Spirit or who ever, it will be handled correctly, and the arbitrators will decide fairly where people should be put. That is something you obviously can't understand, NIC put you where you deserved to be. The NIC award will eventually happen, and you can always quit.


Godspeed!
