Reminds me of all of the stuff said about Contract 96 and those who pushed the notion you vote for it or it will get a lot worse around here. As well as it reminds me back at Coex where the union ended the flow through but made sure the stopping point grandfathered all of them in.
I want the best pay for pilots, I want the strictest scope for the health of my airline. My family will benefit enough from that.
Your anti-alpa bias is showing. Unfortunately facts tend to disagree with your "recollection". The "union" didn't end the flow thru. An enhanced flow thru was not negotiated under the 03/04?? contract. CAL took the pilots who had class dates scheduled before 9/11 (schindlers list). The original flow thru sunset once coex was spun off (under the provisions of the original flow thru agreement). I enjoy reading your posts but please don't let your bias unfactually tarnish hard working union volunteers.
