1 vs how many? Not to mention the great recruiting video some people have drug up.....classic...

I know of one that came over from Reno who isn't a member after being vetted. He was former EAL and his title was earned.

Don't know how they would handle things with others today, especially former Kangaroo boxers.

Is that really the same guy?? If so, that is very disappointing. How was THAT allowed to happen?!

They are union busters, how could it not?

Are you sure it's the same guy? He appears to have a common name.

James Ray

Spokesperson,

US Airline Pilots Association

Any relation to?

Yup, 100% positive. Cleary even wrote a letter to the USAPA membership a few years back absolving him and claiming he never flew a revenue flight so he wasn't truly a SCAB. He told Cleary that he only went to the CAL interview for practice.

Funny, you don't get an aircraft and employee number when you show up for a practice interview. The DOB's match and strikers at CAL have confirmed his name.

Steve Crimi - the former CLT Rep was a Freedom A lister. His excuse was that he went to Mesa just to cost them a type rating in the CRJ and then quit. This is also documented. But since he didn't cross a picket line he's not a SCAB, just a scumbag willing to take jobs from his fellow aviators at a lower cost.

I'm not absolving any, but for years the East has claimed they are scab free. Having one in such a high position in the union should be an embarrassment, but instead your focus has always been on the West because the East is perfect in your eyes.

I think what he's saying is those in glass houses...

My eyes? Hardly...
