4. They were misled by their MEC and ALPA
5. I have never, ever had any problem commuting
6. Neither I nor anyone I know or work with likes to see anyone on the
streets but we did not put them there. They had the chance to fly
these planes, they chose no and were misled. Now, they must live
with that decision.
7. The Regional Airlines is like Jr. High School all over again
8. Additionally, they are furloughing now because Eagle took their planes
back. You know, the ones that Trans States pilots "stole." Sound
familiar?? And don't give me this "That was Mgt's decision. The Pilots
had nothing to do with it" crap. As many of you say towards GoJet,
You chose to stay there, you knew what you were getting into.
Let's see what we can do to straighten this out, shall we?
3. Spoken like someone who belongs at GJ... Lower the bar, then hope that maybe mgmt will give you something back later... Yeah, like that's EVER happened in the past.
4. Yeah, it was ALPA's mistake. They underestimated just how greedy hulas was. They didn't think he'd go so far as to create an entirely new airline just to avoid negotiating a fair contract.
5. Good for you. Maybe you've been lucky, maybe you commute on an airline who doesn't care. But you can be sure I'm doing MY best to make sure every mainline pilot I talk to hears the story of what you are doing to the TSA pilot group. And you can bet United mainline is going to be a LOT more aware of you now that their mgmt is pulling the same BS on them.
6. Sounds like you're just trying to make excuses. Be as much of a man as you can muster and just admit you went there for the quick upgrade/time and don't care about anyone but yourself.
8. I'm guessing you never heard of a little thing called "TWA Express". Also, eagle happens to be owned by a company OTHER than TSA. AMR didn't create TSA to have pseudo-scabs to fly their planes for less money. As much as you want it to to be the same, it's apples and oranges. Sorry.
