Flying along, the first officer hands me a copy of the Eagle Flow thru lawsuit.
The last flow thrus to actually sign the flow thru (December 2001). Those that month that actually signed a flow thru that month were delayed until approx. 2010-2011-2013.
This guy NEVER signed a flow thru. He was the first of 150 to not sign a flow thru agreement to be arbitrator awarded a free flow thru.
Then after him, there was the 825 free flow thrus awarded by an arbitrator after him.

He says his occupational date is 2008. He didn't arrive at LAA until early 2013.

He thinks he should be senior to ALL TWA FO's and senior to ALL on SLI since 2008. Even though he didn't begin training at AA until 2013.

He is suing for 2 years pay increase. Since the company decided to offer 2 years extra pay credit for ANY furloughee that returned before Dec 2013.


He then says he hopes this won't BK APA. He says the lawsuit could be worth 40M.

I was pretty speechless and offered. We bought TWA Jan 2001. Early 2002 TWA was wearing the AA uniform, using the AA call sign on ATC.
He was suggesting that since TWA was a LLC until 2003. He should be senior to ALL TWA FO's.

THIS GUY NEVER SIGNED A FLOW THRU AGGREEMENT
