Mainline? How precious, Kitten. Your knees heal up yet, or are they still sore? Us Airways is hardly mainline. But keep telling yourself that to make up for your inadequacies!

Wow.........you clearly think the interview at Delta is the golden standard for all interviews, at all carriers. I think your time with Leo Mullins has left you with deep emotional scars. You should probably seek therapy for that.

Do you really not understand what happens after the NMB rules? Only one union can represent a pilot group. Who do you think it'll be after USAPA?

Do you understand the difference between present tense and future tense?

And regarding your predictions about the future... well, you have been wrong for at least six or seven years, and we may have to wait at least that long to see if you are correct this time. :D

Yeah - it's bad over here on the East. Tell us how it is on your island in the desert, that you guys chose to build.

I'd be more interested to hear why you ginned up the Frank Lorenzo of unions and why your little cabal felt too threatened by the Nic to share the benefits of the merger with the west.

All the boasting of block holding and new hires doesn't go too far with the rest of the industry who were held down by LOA93 as the Market Rate when they were negotiating their contracts.

Please go on to explain how trade unionism was helped by a self-serving faction that ironically couldn't help themselves and had to be saved by the adults at the APA. Does Frank Lorenzo get paid by USAPA to take the new hires out to lunch and convince them its in their best interest to continue fighting the west?

The APA has no DFR to any USAir pilot with regard to SLI. They do not.

Before Ferggie sells more ties under the assumption about the APA shouldering an SLI DFR to USAir pilots, you should do some homework.

The West failed to do their homework before they spent $2Million plus based on an implicit assumption that USAPA had breached its DFR.... DFR on the Merits = Fail.... The West should be extra careful before they implicitly assume the same failed legal team can accurately assess that APA even has any SLI DFR to any USAir pilot.
 
Im guessing it's a small number of westies that are the epitome of unprofessionalism with this leaving windows open and other shenanigans. I can't wait til you're found and fired on the spot . I wish I could be there to laugh at your stupid as s . at least you'll have that expensive tie . maybe you can sell it to another moron that wants two of them. I think criminal action should also be pursued as this obviously sabotage and interfering with an air crew. Maybe you'll get some jail time too! That would be an added bonus. Keep it up genius. You should be so proud of yourselves. So noble of you .
 
It is true that the East doesn't have a Gazillion widebodies, however the East does have 20 A350-900's on order with delivery starting in 2017. These orders have been on the books since Steven Wolf's tenure and the order has survived two bankruptcies and the America West merger. The A350's are on the East side of the balance sheet in the Transition Agreement.

The demonstrators are out flying and were in Dallas recently.

Also the company video is available on Wings. Go to the front page and scroll down to May 15, Video: A350 comes to visit. Requires company ID and login.

So what? The West had the 747, and they never crashed one. They saved Steven Wolf too. And when APA gets ahold of USAPA the APA will take those 350s and give them to the experience pilots that don't crash planes. Just you wait and see. I bought a tie. Its a done deal now. :cool:

Ever since the mixed metal pairings started in May, west pilots have reported numerous occurrences of intentional sabotage performed by inbound east crews. Some of the occurrences were documented with photos and turned in to the chief pilots office. Just like you, I would like to see these @ssholes caught and terminated.

They will be ably represented by their union, right? Your dues will be used to defend them. Your union may even have to give back some MOU gains to buy their jobs back.

Fool School sound familiar? Did they throw a tantrum after failing to figure out how to start an APU? Does your Facebook page show you wearing your lanyard?:D
 
The latest easties booby trap is a carefully placed ketchup packet placed in the tray table, with the tray table half stowed. If you push in on the table to stow it, the ketchup packet ruptures all over your shirt.
 
The cat piss crowd is not going to like what's coming there way. No legal status with SLI they can't buy enough ties to defend the Nic. Nic is dead and they have spent millions for nothing. Should have bargained at Wye!

The latest Westie booby trap is the press controller knob slightly out of detent and turning the lav lights off on the f/a panel on West metal.
 
It's kind of interesting but West pilots don't have an easy way of finding out if our plane is being picked up by an East crew. If we happen to know the flight number and have access to a computer with Maestro we can check. Otherwise, we just don't know.

Perhaps someone can confirm it but I heard it's easy to check Catcrew to see who's taking the plane. That would certainly explain a lot.

Maybe let's not post a "how to" guide for the idiots looking to do dumb stuff on airplanes.

Not that I am aware of (east or west btw ).

Thanks all for hijacking the thread. Thought there might be some info on E190 skippers.

Well most of the east recalls were handing out those ketchup packet in drive-throughs when the merger was announced. Leave it to the experts. :laugh:

Ok, sure. According to you, the East guys supplied their own ketchup packets..... So, you prove the point that there is a limit to APA generosity. But don't sweat it, AOL is supplying you all with your own tie. :D

Turtle, you forgot to mention the price tag on those ties! Better buy half a dozen before they run out!
 
The money spent on our ties pales in comparison to the money Easties lost by electing to stay on Loa93 rates for seven additional years.
