Who's Flying Your Airplane? NO OUTSOURCING

If it's UAL colors it's UAL pilots. Time to end this crap. No more E170s and CRJ700s flying on UAL/CAL routes. I've had it. See you on the "line" December 1st.

I agree.

What actions is CAL ALPA going to use to combat the breach of their current scope Dec. 1st? Action not words is what it is going to take.

I'm sure another blast mail is in the works. That will show them!

Expedited arbitration is scheduled.
If arbitrator rules with company, ALPA will take it to court and seek an injunction.
If arbitrator rules with ALPA, expect Jeff Lorenzo-Smisek to ignore the arbitrator and.....ALPA will take it to court and seek an injunction.

In the mean time, its hard to see how the line pilots would have much enthusiasm for going the extra mile for operational problems.

Simple.... sue the company for damages and breach of contract. While doing so you go to your favorite overnight and call in sick at the hotel just prior to van, get a free overnight for a few days. Heck, even have your family meet you there....

FREE VACATION!!!!

"sue the company for damages"

That sounds like a protectionist liberal attitude. Is Scope Anti Market Capitalism?

Watch UAL breach Tilton's contract and see how quickly the lawyers get involved. You my friend - can't be real

Good luck with that. Taking back outsourcing from contract carriers would require contract give backs and pay cuts for the elephants. And that aint happen. No one cares about the contract below themselves.

I do not think this Dec 1 issue is about taking back flying from outsourced carriers. This is about new flying on CAL routes in direct violation of the CAL scope clause. Management is using a branding loophole (UAL vs. CAL) to blatantly violate a contract. Other than several friends flying for CAL, I do not have a direct interest in this specific case, but all pilots should be VERY concerned over the precedent this is setting. And that goes for majors, regionals, LCCs, etc.

Damn right Continental pilots must stand up for themselves. I wouldn’t put any faith in taking back what is already lost.
