That erroneous opinion says it all.

Route 66 was a Piedmont pilot who has been through the merger wringer and blames his plight on ALPA instead of recognizing the issues with US Air and those inevitably with merging seniority lists. Thankfully, consolidation is waning.

Yeah, like anyone is taking you guys seriously with your ALPA threats.

Bitter? I’m senior and making more money than you ever made. I’m loving the cash the COMPANY gave me....not the union.

Union hater? That’s your opinion, but I don’t hate the union, but the people who run it, the Carey’s, Wilson’s and Bates are the ones that have the two faces in this group. When someone else that’s a union man bashes them that’s ok, but when I bash them I’m a union hater.

Hippocrytes.

Yeah, you just keep saying that, like, “Trump will never be president”.

Cheap talk.

And that little 20k thing he attempted to expense for his wife to attend some conference with him. He should have been recalled the second that news dropped! That’s beyond disrespectful and/or tone deaf. That’s serious lack of ethics.

He really needs to be recalled before we negotiate anything.

The negotiating comm will probably do an excellent job. And I think DC will just override them and lock them out. Exactly like LOS.

I’m very concerned about what he will give us to vote on. Especially in terms of scope.

We have serious problems w/APA, and we better start taking this one very seriously. ALPA won’t fix an ounce of this sort of thing.
You keep telling these guys, but they won’t listen to you. They’re to smart!!!!

Your posts are pretty toxic. I guess I would be angry too if I had experienced the same career disappointments. I'm glad that you are able to make a good wage now. That's great.

Just don't forget that the 'cash that you are loving' was brought to you by APA. Parker would have happily continued to pay you $160/hour as an A330 CA with zero work rules until the day you retired. I wonder if there is anyone on this board who agrees with your viewpoints on unions. I'm guessing no. You remind me of the guy shouting on sidewalks with a sign that everybody tries to politely ignore.

The union didn’t get me the profit sharing, the pay raise from last year NOR the $1000 bonus. Those are the facts. Every copilot that I fly with and most of the CLT DCA MIA REPS agree that this is a s______y contract. YOUR OWN UNION REPS. They are the ones writing how corrupt Dan Carey is and how poor the contract is written let alone enforced.

You hate me for simply parroting what THEY already say and your simple answer is to get ALPA as if they are the talisman lanyard you’ll wear around your necks to ward off the evil company.

My posts are toxic? Go look in the mirror.

The guys shouting on the sidewalks are you union lackeys that support the same ole same ole. Hypocrites.

So just answer Union or company:
1 who gave us profit sharing?
2 who gave us pay raises last year?
3 who gave us $1000 bonus for last year?

How about the Charlotte and MIA reps complaining about the poor contracts and the super poor language. Are those reps wrong?

Oh, and don’t forget corrupt Dan Carey.

Where does the three of the five ALPA board leadership, who is Delta, interests lie? How many here will except a Delta pilot leadership here?

Sure Delta pay is better but that’s THEIR management not ours.

How about a reality check?
