Okay. The east/west BS pollutes the board. How about we keep any post that has to do with the SLI food fight here so that others don't have to wade through it unless they want to, deal? WD, cacti, cactusmike?

This is a good idea.

I'll get you started with this question. Really, this is the most important issue going forward. If the merger fails in court, what is it going to take for us to get a new (at least) industry standard contract?

I, for one, am weary of this slugfest. Almost every discussion within the AA/US merger forum degrades down to west/east fighting amongst a few of you folks in this forum. It needs to be moved into its own dedicated sub-forum.

Excellent idea. And while we're at it, let's lock all other threads on the subject.

Great idea, Relay.

I'll play first. USAPA is a really, really bad idea that is past it's shelf life.

Or perhaps the three primary people who hijack every thread and turn it into an East vs West battle could just.. I don't know know, STOP? It's a free forum and free country and we all have the ability to post what we want but dang.. After a while it might be prudent to show some respect for others in this business that use these forums to ask questions and gather information about other companies.

Other than descents, have you ever known an airline pilot to use discretion?

So the Continental/United list came out and it went relative seniority. I heard that some of the United guys are going to vote out ALPA and make their own crappy union that will promise DOH but won't be successful in any way.

Continental didn't make out as good as America West on this one though. The furloughs weren't stapled.
