Yea yea I know, just because the MOU says the company "may" go after a single certificate, and that a JCBA "if any" will be negotiated, doesn't mean that they will do that.
That language is just a mistake, or maybe a simple oversight, management loves us and they have always taken care of us. Nothing to see here, don't worry about the actual language, just concentrate on the pay rates other than the 190. Times will be great just ask the TWA pilots, nothin but love here.
PSST hey West pilots, I think I heard an East pilot say they dont like this MOU, you should show them and support it..
Love Doug
Do you seriously believe that Dug (that's how we spell it out west) won't push for single certificate? And nail down a JCBA? Everything in this is totally geared to one airline in as short a period as possible. 24 months from POR, that's the latest before single ops. The MOU was nailed down with the APA for just this reason, he does not want anything other than one list and one contract. The APA, as well, has no interest is being whipsawed. Remember, the LCC pilots passing this MOU is immaterial to the merger. The big dog is APA and the big dog gets to ride in the front seat. It doesn't matter whether we want to ride or not, if we don't we still get tossed in the back and get our ride to the vet's to get neutered.
