Jan 2001 TWA Deal announced.
Merger date April 10, 2001.
My seniority date, thanks to you and your union that you "dont have a say in", June 10, 2001.
You forgot to mention in contract 2003' - no furlough protection and 1890 TWA pilots lost their jobs, as a NAAtive pilot you forgot to mention that because it doesn't affect you.
If you don't like it at American, then leave. There are plenty of furloughed TWA pilots wanting your spot.
The furloughs you speak of in 2003. Are you suggesting that furloughs should have been out of seniority?
It's true, I had no say in the TWA pilot integration. There was no survey.
It was between ALPA and AA and APA.
I think very highly of TWA the former airline.
I think very highly of TWA pilots and have met many and have flown with 2.
Yes, the seniority integration was handled poorly. To say the least.
I thought the TWA pilots had already had their day in court.
Had TWA been a stronger airline perhaps ALPA might have done more or fought harder for pilot seniority integration. But with Carl Icahn on it's back it was impossible.
For you to say it doesn't affect me is blatantly wrong.
