I have been lied to by this guy over and over again.
Years ago he told me that we were going to petition the NLRB for single carrier status with Mesaba and FORCE management to merge us all... thus saving the Comair memberships seniority (ie prevent downgrades).
Lies.
I did my own research. What you say doesn't add up.
Delta didn't own Mesaba until October 30, 2008. That's the first time that there was even the possibility of a merger of the two carriers under the same ownership. Delta didn't get a Single Operating Certificate until December 31, 2009. Mesaba was sold July 1, 2010. Your "years" had exactly 6 months to realistically take place.
Oh, why would an MEC want a merger fund? Your airline was publicly placed up for sale. The other two wholly owned carriers were sold. You're currently ripe for being parted out. Ya think they might want to have a hedge against that...like talking to merger counsel in advance?
I'm thinking somebody else might be lying over and over again....
Anybody else want to give the real reason for a recall 13 days prior to the term's end?
