But the well was poisoned beyond repair when 1224 threatened to “…scope you (ATI) out of existence. You’ll be a 4 plane Combi operation when it’s done.” when their demand that ATI support a “merger” was rebuffed. Why was the offer rebuffed you might ask? Because 1224 said Home Basing in its entirety had to go.
BS 1224 never demanded anything. Many scenarios were presented/suggested to try to satisfy both pilot groups. You are correct they were all rebuffed. Why you might ask? Fear of going thru ABX training was the one we heard most often. 1224 or anyone else for that mater had no magical power to demand " Home basing in its entirety had to go."
Another drama queen, get over yourself.
