2014 Pilot Discussion

[CactusPilot1]

CATPISS1, remember today USAPA is a LLC, they may just sue you back, which they will, remember it is EAST refund your squandering also!

LAWSUIT???

You'd better start raising money for that LLC of yours. Make sure you set money aside for bail if you use funds which don't belong to you. Consider yoursel warned. Get it?

Your track record in court sucks, that we get!

 

[Claxon]

Help is available through your benefits. Just tell the arbitrator that you had a list (and conveniently forget telling him the part about having to reach a new contract to make it usable). The west blew it, and they know it!

west pilots a litigious lot. Marty has uncanny prowess at instigating lawsuits. I am moving my prediction of the west suing APA to February 2015

 

[Claxon]

Snap may want to kiss and make up but I'm not going to forget the assault the East made on the Cactus 18, the Cactus 3 our families. IT'S OUR TURN. We will sue you into extinction and finish the job. Your time of stealing seniority is coming to an end. Theft will not be rewarded. It will be incarcerated.

Someone's little well of good will just never runs dry.....

I agree with you here. I wouldn't be one bit surprised to see the AA guy next to me on the master list with a DOH after mine. AA has a lot going for it heading into this arbitration. I'm good with whatever happens, as long as it's put together by the unbiased arbitrators after the appropriate testimony and vetting. I can only speak for myself, but the NIC at all costs is a red herring. What I always objected to was the stacked deck the east insisted on from the JNC pullout onward. I've spent thousands, and I don't care if I see the NIC again. I just don't want any one group either unilaterally deciding it or stacking the deck so much that it is effectively the same thing.

I prefer the west have a seat, but even if we don't get one I do take comfort in the fact that 3 arbitrators will be almost certainly be constructing the list.

And at least two of them favored slotting by equipment with a 35% longevity credit in their last arbitration. It won't be DOH, and it won't be the NIC either.

And it will not be a lottery ticket for the Westoffs!

Hey Cacti Pile It 1,
 
Dude if you look in the dictionary under moron your picture is sure to be there. Want to know why.  You could be dead from cancer in 6 months. A LOVED ONE COULD BE FACING SOME DIRE THREAT. And what do you do. Sit on these boards and piss and moan about what you don't have and what you deserve and how everyone has conspired to keep you from your "rightful" place and you sound like you are not even grateful for what you do have. God has a way of slapping people like you up side the head when you least expect it. The plaque in your veins don't give a **** about NIC. Let one little piece break off and the NIC will be the least of your worries. You will recover in about 20 years. Relax son. There is a whole big world out there and someday you may actually enjoy it.

This arbitration panel has grasped the concept of credit for longevity in the past, for sure. I doubt that there is anything special about the 35% number outside of the specific numbers associated with the United and Continental merger. If the longevity number in our merger ended up the same it would be purely coincedental.

We've dealt with a constant threat since merging with the unmergeables. The threat is being dealt with as we speak. Now, American is going to inherit the unmergeables and their problems. If it wasn't America West, you'd be fighting with United or another airline who acquired the malcontents of US Airways. The unmergeables have already been griping about the travel policies and the Jumpseat reservation system. You can't help yourselves, you are not happy until you make everyone else who has the bad fortune of merging with you miserable too.

You dimwits keep talking about jail and incarceration.  Unless you can fast-talk some district attorney into prosecuting (and winning), there cannot be jail time with a civil suit.   The best you can hope for is to win a civil suit with damages, and in light of how things have gone for you dimsits so far, that is unlikely in the extreme.

Exactly!  The east has taken advantage of the attrition they wished to protect in 2007.  I think we are well positioned for a list slotted by equipment with a nod to longevity.

 

[prechilill]

You pretty much validate the formation of USAPA by making that ridiculous statement. And there is no way the APA is going to give a 2004 West hire an 85 handicap.

Wrong. 
 
1985 US Air = 1997 AA = 1998 AWA

 

[AWE Dog]

Wrong. 
 
1985 US Air = 1997 AA = 1998 AWA

Coincidentally, your 13 years at AWA is what you want to erase from a 1985 US Air hire. Black Swan's statement is correct.
