So you're saying LUALALPA wasn't attempting to put the 744 in a higher pay rate because the A350 (a plane not scheduled for delivery until after the JCBA amendable date) was banded to it in their proposal? Um... OK.
Just go back and look at the UAL/CAL side suggestions for integration. The final result was MUCH closer to the UAL side suggestion. Many on the low side of UAL senority didn't fair as would have been liked but the UAL side held to the New Merger Policy.
I actually agree with you there. CALALPA proposed an SLI that left many of us scratching our heads and probably cost many on the CAL side hundreds of numbers.
JP's shenanigans created the distrust and disunity that causes these little rants and tirades.
Both sides maneuvered to give their side an advantage. Your side won. It doesn't matter any more because it's over and we're all on the same list now. It's well past the time to move on.
