The amount of stupidity at eagle with the pilots is amazing. if they fart all there brain cells are gone.
The eagle line pilots did not vote for this. The union reps who are eagle pilots made this decision without consulting the members. There was a grievance and management offered the flow to AA as a remedy to the TSA grievance. The union agreed, then AMR transferred the airplanes to AA in exchange of AA assuming all the debt that eagle had with regards to airplanes. AA did this as Eagle had been "reported" as a profitable entity and there could have been issues when restructuring the leases compared to AA who was being reported as an unprofitable company. The divestures was a way to hide the transfer of debt, this came up in the BK process and AMR took care of it under the table.
The two of you are sticking, this industry has lost its luster and Eagle is not what it used to be. The company is violating the contract and we are shrinking but you guys should give unbiased information to the newer people instead of your opinionated pathetic doom and gloom blab!
