I was not making a personal attack. I was simply stating that many things have to be considered. If a wife knows nothing about airline labor negotiations, and is suddenly without her stipend, she will wonder what happened. I doubt that many pilots really inform their spouses about what is really going on with their jobs.

I would hardly call stiffing the pilot group for two years plus negotiating. Negotiating involves two parties reaching an agreement through give and take and settling on a fair outcome for both. This is not happening. The companies are using the RLB to issue a defacto pay cut and will only negotiate when forced to, not through a sense of fair play.
The idea that wives are kept in the dark is amusing, most of them can read and speak the English language. News of headway in negotiations? There is none.

She has always been involved and I would say that is true for my pilot friends and their spouses.

No intern would have the knowlege I have about IPA. I will not tell you who I am, but I will tell you I was once a line pilot at UPS. Prior to that time, it is a secret. I went into management very early in the game
He's a management tool, but just not for Fedex.
