And to answer your question, the Airbus is really easy to fly, especially with United's excetional training, it was even easier.
Nope, not on the MEC. But if I was, I certainly wouldn't disclose that on a public forum.
Exactly how do you fight the company when they followed the CBA on this subject (LOAs)? The MEC has other fights to fight, namely in those areas where the company is NOT following the CBA.
And for the record, I'm not ranting and raving- just trying to answer the questions YOU asked. Maybe you should be worrying about what's going on on your side of the fence- like how United's MEC has sold scope to the point that it's rendered you unemployed. I know it has Continental's MEC's attention.
