What the former UAL BoD did to your airline and pilot group should be criminal, but it is what it is. These cruel facts put our respective pilot groups on un-equal footing considering Scope and Furloughs; from a pilots perspective, this is not a merger of equals due to your current circumstances. It's gonna be bloody and contentious between us for a while, but hopefully we will all survive it and have great careers with the new UAL. I look forward to it.
