Since Luv was giving you crap about spelling, you'll have to take it easy on me. Damn the auto correct

I think my socks are worth more than the stock options.

He started the consolidation ball rolling? Like united and capital? Delta and western? Southwest and muse air? Yea, he is such a prodigy..... Such a visionary that guy..

Have you noticed Delta is starting mainline flights between lga and pit?

Your wonder boy couldn't make a go of LGA and seems stuck in a rut absent major help from elsewhere...

Did he invent the Internet too?

The only consolidation he's touched is still incomplete.

Parker has gotten another ticket. 5 now. "failure to merge...."

Good one, hope you're wrong.

As predicted. Anyone believe that a 6 year old discarded bargaining proposal from a previous union is being discussed in Dallas?

President's Message


Fellow Pilots,
This afternoon, December 10th, your Officers, Board of Pilots Representatives (BPR) and Negotiating Advisory Committee (NAC) conducted a two-hour informational conference call regarding the potential merger of US Airways and AMR (American Airlines).
With the approval of the BPR, your union has entered into discussions about a potential merger with AMR, Allied Pilots Association (APA), the Unsecured Creditors Committee (UCC) and US Airways management. These discussions begin this week in Dallas. President Gary Hummel and Executive Vice President Steve Smyser will join the NAC, USAPA Professional Negotiator and USAPA General Counsel in these talks.
Because of the work your BPR has to do, the Regular Quarterly BPR Meeting will go on as planned. Vice President Steve Bradford will preside over this meeting. We will do our best to keep you informed as developments occur.
Respectfully,

    
Gary Hummel - President

"US Airline Pilots Association’s seniority proposal does not breach its duty of fair representation
provided it is supported by a legitimate union purpose. This judgment is binding on the
following class: “All pilots employed by US Airways in September 2008 who were on the
America West seniority list on September 20, 2005.”

Not binding on USAPA, APA, UCC, or Company?

I suppose the wide range of reasonableness that remains will be plenty wide to accomaodate a meetig of the minds of all involved.
