I’ve been a captain on 737 or larger aircraft for essentially the same company since 1990. And held 757 captain since 2004. Since you guys sat stagnant for 20 years and could never hold the left seat I guess the arbitrators got a few things right.
It’s not rocket science, and I’ve been lucky compared to a lot of guys. You East guys that are still whining need to **** and emulate the TWA guys. These are the guys that really got screwed and I never hear them being negative. They go on and do a professional job and are great to fly with. Luckily the former east guys I fly with are nothing like you.
Funny, but I haven't gotten on ANYBODY'S "no fly" list. I've been a Captain on the A320 and B737 most of MY career. You WEST guys didn't earn it. Period. What they say to your face and what they REALLY say behind your back is something to think about. Personally, EF is the scab you brought to the table and you guys getting a contract by the end of the year, methinks, is because the +3000 votes EF/DC didn't get is going to surprise you.
The company knows ALL this and the "below the line" guys are going to soon realize that neither EF nor DC are going to do what you hope they'll do because the APA is the COMPANIES "B!TITCH.
You AWA guys are
