I agree that UAL is free to do (most) anything they want in good times. But when UAL pilots are on the street, the Aviate pipeline is 100% unnecessary.
For this claiming Aviate is zero cost, UAL bought a flight school. That’s not zero cost, nor is it critical to the core business.
I have no idea what you’re talking about. Conflict with CBA? Aviate does not diminish the provisions of the UPA with respect to employment at UAX. Anything beyond that makes you sound as if you think that we are entitled to jobs at UAX beyond what the UPA spells out.
If you’re angry that mainline turbojet jobs were farmed out in the 1990s, welcome to the club. That was asinine at the time.
