I've heard one guy, out of dozens or hundreds, mention that he's against the deal. Overall he's a mid pack to junior 767 CA.
Perhaps I didn't explain myself well enough. I know and have met a few AA guys. All of the ones I've PERSONALLY talked to are in favor of the merger.
The guys against, I was referring to, I heard about through this site. When JetHead was being lambasted on Tool of the Day for being afraid to land at DCA and kicking off every jumpseater and non-rev for the sake of fuel, someone posted that he had started a small coalition against the merger. They were described as being very senior. That's what I heard.
In my personal interactions with AA crew members, either through friendship or jumpseat rides, I have found that the ones I talked to are in favor of the merger.
