ALPA gigged us in the Piedmont/USAir merger in 1989 for $600. Think I was assessed again for the Trump Shuttle. I sent $200 to the East group. Probably more money down the drain. Unions are like government, they never have enough!

alpa thought that united would be involved in a merger with US Airways.
Brucia and Gillen were alpa pilots trying to stack the deck against LUS pilots. Nice try "union brothers".
Hey Brucia and Gillen, you are united airline pilots, your airline has 2500 scab pilots, yet you say nothing.
Loving every minute of it, you will not be forgotten.

The donations eventually got you guys a West committee, maybe ( a committee for the West was the right thing and would have happened anyway probably).
I'm not sure the litigation over the years accomplished anything, except delay. A new seniority list was never going to happen without a new pilot agreement. The long dispute just let everyone keep what they brought via separate ops (nirvana).
The new SLI will bring consummated nirvana😊 And then folks can finally let go of their ties, unless they want to hold on.

To be completely accurate the following statement from the Pre-hearing (should the West have a seat), espouses what EVERYONE but USAPA was thinking:
MR. MOLLEN: Right. Right.
But from our perspective, Your Honor, the Ninth Circuit has not ruled that the case isn't ripe, it held that it wasn't ripe.
Now that we've got the MOU in place and we're moving rapidly towards seniority integration under this merger the question of whether USAPA has to come to that particular integration process with a Nicolau-based list or not is ripe as it can be. It will never be more ripe. We are there, we have reached that juncture…….

The West got the seat at the table because USAPA could NOT possibly be expected to FAIRLY represent the former AWA pilots in a seniority integration. That was proven beyond a shadow of a doubt.But from our perspective, Your Honor, the Ninth Circuit has not ruled that the case isn't ripe, it held that it wasn't ripe.

While I agree a new list couldn't happen without a new contract....... Nirvana? OK, yeah the east got to hold onto a bankruptcy contract, they did bring that. The east however went from furloughing to hiring pilots, while the west went from hiring pilots to furloughing. I'd hardly say that both sides got to keep what they brought to the table. Separate ops let the side under a bankruptcy contract undercut the other side, thanks. Sure made the beancounters happy though. Well...... maybe not this one.
