Judge Silver rules
This could go under the AOL update thread, but I believe few read it and this involves all AA pilots. Judge Silver ruled in USAPA's favor, but with some cross words for them.
"A group of pilots formerly employed by America West Airlines, Inc., and their new
union, have a long-standing disagreement regarding pilot seniority. Unfortunately, there is
no perfect solution to that disagreement. The Court finds the former America West pilots
have not established the new union breached its duty of fair representation. In addition, the
former America West pilots are not entitled to participate in the upcoming statutory
procedure required for the integration of the US Airways and American Airline pilots."
Let's move on.
