My heart really goes out to the AT guys after reading some of the stuff you guys have posted... And not taking pilots in a business transaction of purchasing a hard asset is nowhere near what SWAPA and GK did to them. You really take the cake dude.
Okay there TS, here is some cake to chew on. As I have said in the past the Pan Am deal included lying to very senior pilots (PAA) that DAL would feed the new Pan Am and there was no need to fight for transition to DAL. DAL then bought all the best assets and pulled the plug (to the tune of a promised 25 million dollars) just before Christmas of '91. This benefited DAL pilots by not offering senior Pan Am pilots the chance to transition. I won't get in to the details until it is again questioned but DAL (with no argument from the DAL pilots) screwed over the Pan Am pilots in many ways only to dump the senior ones as a Christmas present.
I believe you were there at the time so if you have a different explanation on what I have described please feel free to enlighten us as to what really happened. You personally benefited from what happened to the Pan Am pilots but yet you wish to throw feces at myself and those here at SWA. Really?
