Sad, but early, usually this is disperse around nov-dec, as a Xmas present, mgmt will think about the furloughs employees on Xmas day while sipping baby blood in a chalice by the fireplace.

I agree with your statement, but there isnt much I can do about it. There is past practice with this issue, and in the past when dealing with an on/off duty issue around the midnight hour the company has remedied the issue by adjusting their flight schedule to accomodate the CBA restrictions. As long as all pilots schedules are CBA compliant there isnt much that can be done.

But....but.....but.....it's far too easy to just whine about the perceived problems on the internet. Too many guys are just happy to let someone else take care of the work so they can fly their trips and go home to complain on the interwebz about the work of others.....

Good for them, we went thru DFW this week, crazy how slow planes can taxi..
I hope they get what they deserve.
On another note, without being political, a great number of pilots specially at AMR, are well known Republican conservatives, now , wouldn't this action against the solvency of a major corp be against all the republican/conservative believes?
Crxp like -If you don't have what I have is because you are the lazy type?-
just wondering if we pilots are just swingers by convenience. Ypu know being a pro-agaist union type of job.
