Quote: At least you got years of service pay and some of your senior people (not many but some) are still at AA when 1000+ AA pilots who were on the property prior to the "Buyout" (Yes it was a buyout not a merger) are still on the street.

Vilifying AA pilots and whining about it 7 years later is just a waste
I'm a little lost here: You mean that 1000 AA pilots were on the street while only 495 TWA senior Captains were still working, after the 9-11 furloughs? You mean that only 1000 AA pilots got furloughed, only 11% of the list, while 1900 TWA pilots got furloughed, over 75% of TWA's list? Is that what you meant?

Villifying pilots who wronged another pilot group is old news? Well they did, and people don't easily forget. When careers are destroyed, the bad feelings don't just disappear...
