That being said, I do think you too are ready to pull the trigger when your MEC sends out the marching orders. The other half of your MEC, United, has publically cautioned your MEC. That tells me even they have reservations about the validity of whether or not this is a violation....Wendy isn't a fan of us and would take glee in joining the attack on us. I suspect they have looked at this as I have and don't see the violation.
I apologize for lumping you in, but I don't apologize for attacking those of your fellow pilots who are attacking the Skywest pilots...
UAL is not the 'other half' of the CAL MEC! We are both stand alone entities and CAL has every right to do what's in their best interest. The UAL pilots will support them 100% -- especially when it comes to scope and preventing any further outsourcing of OUR flying.
If you're referring to the Wendy Morse quote from a previous post, you've taken it out of context. She was referring to the 'standoff' over pay structures and the alleged comments made by Capt Baron to the UAL MEC. If she has made some other public caution to the CAL MEC over this issue, please point it out so I can make a few phone calls and voice my displeasure....
