Did Gary give us our current reserve system? I seem to remember it being largely a product of LOA 93, with a lot of time spent on it and other scheduling provisions by hard working volunteers from the USAPA scheduling committee. Are you demeaning their work?
Maybe Gary will go sell Airbus products like one of our former MEC chairmen, who knows? Maybe Gary should have stepped down, but I think the medical issue was a red herring for guys that had a hard on for him. I heard the same things from several F/Os about Gary, none of which have come true.
My point is, that's done. Why bring it up now? Gary has nothing to do with the APA, does he?
Why don't you PM me you name and number and we can talk about it.
This is not an attack on you and your beliefs, this is my opinion. I would not go and fly 292 pax with the medical issues that our president has, much less try to orchestrate the worlds largest merger, and feel like I gave 100% to the pilots. I can give you many examples of G H unable to be there. Just my opinion and after 35 years I feel I am entitled to one. I also respect yours. Safe flying my friend.
