ALPA needs to learn to integrate groups at longevity / seniority steps that credit work done for companies we shut down. Otherwise getting enough no voters is futile.
The company and ALPO made the same type of threats to Eagle....
now AMR admitts the E-145's will be around for several years more than originally anticipated.
stop falling for management fear tactics. Fear is all they have.
The company HAS to make money to succeed. That means replacing fleets when needed. In Eagle's case, they're paying less than half what everybody else is paying for their EMB's... hence the things just became even more profitable again. If they can scare a bunch of fools into concessions for planes they HAVE TO BUY ANYWAY, then that just helps their bottom line, provides bigger bonus checks, and makes creditors and Wall St happier.
Stop playing their game. The company doesn't run without you.
