national is still involved, providing resources, costing and much more.
Yeah. Rick "MadDog" Dubinsky. Great choice. Famous for saying when he was MEC Chairman at United "I don't want to kill the golden goose, I just want to choke it until every last egg comes out". He gave them the grand slam C2K in 2000 after the "Summer of Discontent" which put the company at such a financial disadvantage after 9/11 that they were the first one to declare bankruptcy and run to the court to invalidate the contract. They took 40% pay cuts, lost nearly all their work rules, and furloughed.
Rick used to suck around with Duane Woerth at ALPA national during the late 2000s. Duane was trying to get him a position at National. Rick was an abrasive mf. Kind of "old man yells at cloud" boomer type. Nobody wanted him around.
Guess that's how he ended up working for King Andrew lol. Ouch.
