His use of TACA was absurd. It was a great example of illustrating YOUR absurdity, by using absurdity. Too bad you can only recognize other people's absurdity...even when it's being used to illustrate your own.

I've mentioned all those carriers in my responses; together those 4 make up 55% of the US market. TACA isn't on the list. btw, the 4 largest that I haven't mentioned (AMR, B6, ALA, and AAI) make up less than 25% of US capacity.
Yes you have mentioned all those carriers. You've said we need to compare ourselves to Unical, and LCC and others like AMR. You've specifically stated that we
can't use LUV because they have a totally different business model. You've specifically stated that we can't use UPS and FDX because you say they're in different industries.
The fact that you say this as a high up union official is what troubles so many. You're not just one guy with one vote. You and your opinions are running our union.
Scary stuff.
