If the communication is lacking volunteer for the F9 pilot group in some capacity. I am glad to hear that you are emotionally and financially prepared for a strike because that is what I see for your future.
The B team? When are LEC elections and put in somebody that is part of your "A" team. That is what I meant about bottom up structure. Anyways - I will be on your picket line whenever I am called - first coffee or beer is on me.
Fascinating, United huh? Maybe someone can get the actual story about the Frontier, United merger of 86. I figure the only reason ALPA made it on to the property was that pretty much all of the old crews are long gone. But there's a lot of us who would cross any United picket line with no hesitation. I know it was a long time ago but a lot of us feel the United MEC purposely derailed the merger attempt by demanding an unacceptable pay package. One lesson we took away was that ALPA will always follow the money, ie; the airline with the most revenue.
