You and/or your predecessors sold this flying to protect the senior mainline pilots...Sorry it's mine now and I will do whatever I need to do to protect it....you do what you need to and I will do what I need to do......
Ray Charles could have seen this train wreck coming....Too bad some of you are just now seeing it.....
Hey no big deal. Some folks are happy to be in the back yard in the kiddie pool. Only difference is those types of folks tend not to talk smack to their neighbors that can afford an in ground pool especially about subjects they don't know about. Glad you are happy at a regional. I have an old buddy who told me he was going to be a carrier guy at Comair around '03. He called me last month and asked if I would write him a recommendation. I recognize your ramblings with 'you gave it to me, so it's mine' talk. Let me guess RJDC!?! You guys managed to succeed in the end. Well that is if success involves funding an addition on some lawyers' house!
Personally I don't advocate a jumpseat war myself so spare me the speech about 'you idiots gave it up, don't hurt me.' We'll go to court to fight this contractual battle and who knows we might just win. In the mean time, keep entertaining us with your insight on the UAL MEC's views of the CAL MEC's business concerning Scope. Can't wait for the insight of a carrier RJ capt when our JCBA comes out.
