Hopefully we will see yet another DFR for ALPA.
What the man says. A furlough for any reason, should trigger a rebid to allow senior people to bid the remaining positions. Been that way from Day 1. The fact that the company has to retrain is a function of agreeing to the terms of the agreement that they happily held the pilots feet to. For a union to turn a blind eye is bad...to agree to it in court? Gee, thanks. You just set a legal precedent that will get shoved down the throats of other pilot groups..."See Judge? ALPA AGREED TO IT already...so since the precedent is set...no big deal!"
Bruce York and Betty Ginsberg strike again. Two people who are happy to get $$ from pilots pockets while the pilots walk the street.
