Glad you enjoy those retired, oops, I mean divorced pilots who left less for you sitting in your seat! Did you send gifts for their remarriage ceremony?

I hope the facts come out. If they're thieves, they ought to be treated as such.

You do understand that Delta was playing with the bankruptcy rules whereas CAL isn't. Only a court can terminate our plan. We may be forced into annuities because of this but thats it. And by the way; more than 9 pilots pulled this stunt. I guess the others covered their tracks better and made it harder to prove.
