I do not understand your post, please explain.
Another question. If there was no problem with the Nic, why all the changes to ALPA merger policy? Why has a 3 member panel become the standard if one respected arbitrator was fine? Events have shown your flawed logic, I'm just presenting them. |

The arbitrators are only stating that Alpa changed the policy that they must follow, not that Nicolau got it "wrong". My point is that Nicolau, regardless how east pilots view him, is VERY well respected within the arbitrator community and it is that community that will be putting our list together. Again, if we get a seat at the table I will sleep very, very well regarding my nic position within the usair
ways pilot list that gets integrated into the apa list. Glad you're sleeping well, me too. Nic or not, really does matter to me. Just can't stand all the lies and revisionist history, particularly the complete omission of the TA and it's restrictions. See ya, football is getting good. |

We never merged seniority lists, and that's a fact. We had a blueprint , but it has never been used. A new contract made it a nullity and a federal judge ruled that was okay. With all that, I cannot see an arbitration panel using the Nic. But, I don't know and admit I might be wrong. We'll see.

How about Bloch? Is he respected? He came to completely different conclusion about the state of the companies, the state that Nic used as an excuse for his disaster.

R57, you think there is one arbitrator in this country that is not aware of what the east has done to avoid the Nicolau? I'm not saying they agree or disagree with what the east has done (I've been wrong plenty) but from a "reasonable" standpoint, what do you think the likelihood is that these arbitrators agree with the east tactics? I would think the east will have a very hard time convincing them to ignore a 2005 merger.

The Nicolau is alive and well and it will be given to the arbitration panel. I firmly believe that if the west is given a seat, the seniority order of usairways pilots within the merged aa list will either be straight Nic or very, very close to it.
