2014 Pilot Discussion

[EastUS1]

Let's look on the bright side. Maybe we have finally found a "vet" who would get excited over Munn's idiotic Memorial Day tribute from the other day.

 
LOL...Indeed. Perhaps those two mighty "heros" could share "war stories" with each other. 😉
 
Nicelandingcaptain: I "saved hundreds of troops on the ground" in my "gray jet"!!!...Well...even though I was never anywhere even close to a war zone.
 
Chip: That's nothing! When not making hair plug commercials: I prevented "Armageddon", by instantly demanding that everyone take at least a 10% drop in pay, even when nobody in the company had asked for anything of the sort!....Not to even mention to "my fellow Vets" that I personally took out the Death Star! 😉

Better make sure you bring that dictionary to the APA arbitration. 

US Airways was in a much better position. We should argue our pilots over APA instead of DOH. You implicitly assume arbitrators will somehow favor the APA argument. I think they need the dictionary.

If someone never plans to upgrade, at what point does the notion of increasing seniority lose any importance whatsoever?  If one has enough already to be a senior FO for the remainder of their career, is it possible to be persuaded one should care about others?

Does AA still have the up or out policy?

The last 5 pilot seniority arbitrations absolutely favor the APA position of category and status.
 
I think you need glasses.

Well word is AOL has told their boys to stay off this board because of the pending summer of discontent in PHX. Seems lack of action on this board signifies their intent.

History repeats itself for Leonidas.

They have finished digging their own graves and are now pulling the dirt in on top of themselves. Nice little video slideshow 43 frames long playing on the tombstone.

Is there a force majeur clause re PHX block hours?

The APA has only publicly expressed an affinity for ratios.  What "ratios" means is anyone's guess.  It was 8 to 1 with TWA....   once they started slotting.   In your kind words.. "You need glasses."  😀

I was the only one on this web board with the vision to see and predict how Nicolau was going to rule.
 
How many DOH petitions did you sign?

Tell us, how did you luck out and receive an invitation to interview with a major airline, then get hired?

Did apa and american pilots announce their position?

You haven't spent that vacation pay yet have you?

Your daddy paid for your education.
 
Your pappy paid for your flying lessons.
 
Your pappy got you the interview.
 
Your pappy pulled strings and got you hired.
 
We can all gain a lot from your wisdom.  (sarcasm) 
 
The west pilots seek out pilots with soft hands like you to further their agenda.  Pibrat figured it out, you have not.

Just like Chip you jump in front of something years after it has left the station and then discover yourself to be a visionary.  
 
Being correct now about what Nicolau was going to do is about as useful as what he did do.

I hope you've learned somthing from the history of the last eight years.

More than your dad.  He stapled Empire pilots to the bottom of his fellow airman.
