It must be difficult being at American, having your union contract withering away, in bankruptcy, not knowing if a merger will happen and if so how will your life be affected. It must be very stressful.

The good news is that the McCaskill-Bond legislation will help to preserve a fair and honest integration of the pilot groups.

The irony is the legislation was passed to prevent a future rape of a pilot group like what John "Dancing Man" Darrah, Ed "Saks 5th Avenue"White and every APA member did to the TWA pilot group.

Best of luck AA pilots, I've walked in the shoes you made for me, and have been furloughed for 9 years this July.
