Hey, thanks for your opinion and thanks for volunteering. By all means enjoy those steak dinners and open bars at the national meetings and conventions. But if you don't mind, send us an email now and then that actually tells us what's going on with grievances, pay audits, and the myriad other daily issues pilots gripe about. Not the canned generic emails from national providing me with company news and health tips.

Thanks,
Signed, someone who has almost certainly been a union member longer than you have been alive.

Yes, thanks Ocho. Seriously. To you and others that step up on our behalf every day, sacrificing your personal time so that we can enjoy the remarkable enhancements in compensation, benefits and QOL, my sincerest thanks for what you do. We all owe you and the other volunteers a debt of gratitude for the THANKLESS job you do for others. There will always be critics and nay-sayers, but to have stepped up and fought for others, without the protections of a contract, speaks to your character. Steaks on me.

ECAM, thou presumeth much. As a career union man, you should know better. Easy to anonymously trash-talk the efforts of those who toil endlessly on our behalf. Keep it up and see what our representation starts to look like, if at all.

Signed, someone even older than you.


"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the“ arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”


― Theodore Roosevelt

I love that quote. I see it every day, on the wall of my bathroom. It inspires me.

I am certain the Wright Brothers, Charles Lindbergh, and the Apollo 11 astronauts felt exactly the same way.

Just add a little extra fiber to your diet, it’s more consistent.

So apparently we are going to compete with ourselves now? SRQ is an hour from both PIE and PGD. Makes no sense. Why not just run more flights from CVG, IND and PIT to PGD?

GFK and FAR are 80 miles apart. Both do very well. There’s a reason they’re doing it. If it doesn’t work, it’ll go away quickly.
