What's 357 Done For You Lately?

What's 357 done for me lately?

They put this regional puke(a term of endearment, I'm told) above over half of the FAPA pilots. I think your asking the wrong questions about the wrong group.

I believe the Arbitrator, not 357 was responsible for that. I don't remember him stating that his being impressed with the IBTs work influenced his decision in the award. Maybe I should re-read it (4th time)...

Glad you're beginning to grasp the "regional puke" title, though. Try it on for a while, you might like it. Seriously though, I really do respect my RJ brothers and sisters...

And just proving what Asses FAPA is..not the frontier pilots, but FAPA itself. Just lost my vote.

I think FAPA, Midwest, and LX groups have already decided to push for ALPA should it come to that, so there is no vote for FAPA...

We just got b-slapped by the Drizzle! Props on that one!

7+ years to figure it out. Will you wait that long?

Absolutely not. I wanted nothing to do with F9 before the acquisition and want nothing to do with F9 after. I want off this sinking ship ASAP.

Will you survive that long??

Thanks for not including the Frontier line guys on your ****list, FAPA has said the same thing about the line RAH pilots, we all just get to play the hands we're dealt.

I (truly) don't understand why you're angry at FAPA though. This was an RAH management decision, signed by Wayne Heller, evidenced by the memo he put out to the RAH pilots. Is it your feeling that FAPA coerced or convinced RAH management into taking this position? I'm not baiting here, I'd just like to hear your perspective on why you think FAPA is to blame for this situation.

Edit:

Does anyone know how this affects the Midwest and Lynx pilots? They were conspicuously absent from either of the memos.

Additional Edit:

I would really like to hear from the Midwest pilots regarding their level of satisfaction, or lack thereof, IRT ALPA instead of the Frontier or RAH pilot's take on what level of support ALPA provided them throughout the SLI.

You mean will RAH survive that long, they have everything vested in this, you think they can just sell f9 anytime they want? My guess is the whole thing implodes, get your resume ready. Good luck, your going to need it.

While there was certainly a dose of schadenfreude in the thread's title, how is this FAPA's fault?

The IBT's refusal to negotiate forced the arbitrator to rule, and his decision created some things that all parties find repugnant. As the letter states, IBT refused to consider a flow through when it was put on the table and now there will be at least seven years for you to calculate what the net present value of that decision was.

RAH is following the arbitrator's decision - a seven year fence. If you thought you had found a path under it, you were wrong. This has nothing to do with FAPA.

 

[Mr Biggelsworth]

Not real intelligent to simply copy and paste internal FAPA emails to a message board like this...

Second that. Real professional. Grow up old man.

Ignorance is bliss I guess. Who brought F9 out of bankruptcy? Who kept the Midex pilots flying for a less than, if not horrible wage, at work? The ARBITRATOR made his decision and that is what one has to deal with.

Speaking of ignorance, what in the world are you talking about in that second sentence?

Repubic has hired.....what......fifty pilots this year? I would think it would be a no brainer for 20 of them to take this Frontier deal? What have they got to lose, unless the company holds them to their training contract, which they could conveniently choose to ignore. And once again, Midwest pilots are left on the street.

So tell me why I have gotten into CA every week for the past two months (yes I have a DUI), and have had absolutely ZERO recourse when going through customs? You do not show them your driving license, only your passport. On their computer they CANNOT pull up your driving record through your passport. PERIOD. Once again, to many people on this stupid website drinking the kool-aide: unless you operate an automobile through their border, they cannot find out.

Et tu, Bigglesworth?
Looking at your past quotes, you seem to have a drinking problem, a predilection for lying, and a scatological fixation. I wonder how you made it from TSA onto the RAH rolls in 2007 with a DUI and that level of professionalism?

 

[crashpad]

Repubic would have furloughed hundreds of fledglings by now if wasn't for Frontiers mainline clientele. Don't take for granted what they've created.
Just because someone bluffed their way into a commuter job, major airlines will pick it up in the background check....thankfully.

 

[Full of LUV]

Fair enough, I can certainly understand and appreciate your thoughts on the matter. With the current health and practices of RAH, I feel as if anyone making the move will be furloughed as soon as summer flying ends.

Well then the $25K training contract will be moot so that will be the risk you would take for a A320 type.....
