Oh yes, that the TDub guys should accept the staple job because their company is in bankruptcy and they should feel lucky just to have a job. I guess they learned from their own mistake.
Well, just remember, we TWA pilots in BK were just KMART pilots and we got what we deserved. When the AA/APA merger committee meets with the USAir East/West counterparts they will tell them they are Walmart and Dollar Store pilots and they should be stapled after the TWA pilots. Hey when you're an elite Saks 5th Ave pilot, no one comes before you. WHAT GOES AROUND - COMES AROUND. Glad to see it is coming around.
Oh and to ask the APA to protect what little seniority crumbs we got would like asking a fat person for a bite of their twinkie.
