Not true. The LBFO lists "furlough protection" down to the 95th percentile. Hardly wonderful news if you are facing your second furlough after just being recalled a few months ago. We also know how well furlough protection has worked in the past. It isn't worth the paper it is printed on. The rest of the list will slide backwards....AGAIN. More "great news" for junior pilots is that the APA agreed to sell out the A319 back to group 2 in order to improve the trip and duty rigs.

The rest of the agreement was awash in ambiguous language that would have allowed AA management to rewrite huge portions of the contract at will, such as the reserve system and the TTOT system.

I'm glad this pathetic offer went down in flames at the BOD level.
