OTTER, my man DEC 2007, watch the video, the company can change its negotiation stance as well as USAPA TILL A CBA is sent to ratify, nothing is closed,as for your T/A READ THE 9th, Excuse me but your 2 don't count, it aint cumulative!DOH 99 windfall, DOH is not a windfall! MM! flt attendants , mechs, ramp service,ALPA is not our CBA, LOA 93 long way to go, MDA, LOA93 pay griev, DID YOU WATCH THE VIDEO? What makes u think seperate ops and LOA 93 is a burden, heck more money would be great, but this company in it's present form will not survive or be sold with the PHX anchor attached! MM! THE COMPANY HAS ACCEPTED NOTHING UNTIL A CONTRACT IS RATIFIED!
Now usapa is speaking for the company? And what do you call that young man?? I call it DFR.
''THE COMPANY HAS ACCEPTED NOTHING UNTIL A CONTRACT IS RATIFIED!"
usapa's dream couldn't be further from the truth!
Honestly, I hope this ABORTION called usairways does not survive because of pilots/people like MUTATIS MUTANDIS and a union called usapa. With the upswing, history shows that attrition happens every where. The west will enjoy attrition along with the east and the usapa mantra seperate ops, maybe some more % on the east but with a lot on the east attrition coming from the east angry fo's right seat, so not much difference.
I'm in my mid 40's with over 22 thousands hours and typed in the B747, MD11, B737, B757, B767, A320 with captain time on all but the first and the last stated. So if lcc does not survive, I don't think I'll have to go far looking for a well paying job.
PHX anchor attached??? uhmmm. How many sailors/airlines wanted the BANKRUPT usair TITANIC as a whole? Answer is NONE, ZERO, NADA, ZIP. Parker/kirby/lease holders made a big mistake IMO buying you. Two usair bankruptcy filings in less than 2 years can't be good unless somebody wanted to make a quick buck and merge that cluster F%%k before it sinks. With the current numbers coming out, you've to wonder how well this company will do if you on the east get your snapback grievance?
FYI, parker doesn't take a dump until he gets advice from legal and hired consultants. What other employee groups have AGREED TOO has nothing to do with this pilot group.
Going forward this will be decided in a COURT OF LAW!
In the mean time, enjoy loa 93
