Who's talking about Wallach?? What does he have to do with any of this? The hat switch was a total and complete joke. See? To me it's about PERFORMANCE, not some High School Gossip Girls episode about which domicile the MC is from. If Wendy had performed, I'd have been behind her 100%. She failed in MISERABLE fashion. She and JP took the only really good leverage we had and wasted it by believing management promises about a quick contract. Ask her how many ALPA reps she had in the DOJ's office during the approval process.

I will more than happily claim JH as my leader. Not because I'm a West Coast pilot, but because I'm a UNITED pilot, and I want a new freaking contract. I don't think JH failed in the least. He forced the issue. One that JP and LM CLEARLY didn't want forced. When June 15th comes around and we don't have a TA (which we won't), where are they going to hide then? They can't claim that they didn't know it was coming!! His move exposed the weak leadership of JP and LM in one stroke of the pen. The pilots at both airlines now know what is going on, and it looks like JH's move will be able to be made with the unity we NEED. Time will tell whether JH's strategy fully pays off in mid June. Time has already exposed Wendy's strategy as a total, complete, miserable failure. In two years, we were further from getting a contract when Wendy left than when she took office. And you want to recall JH!?!?!?! For what?!? Your politics are killing your mind. Wake up and get on board, or be quite and get out of the way.
