Do you realize that the Union proposed if we are under 4A2B in May 2010 the company should go ahead and furlough? And that the junior pilots jobs should be protected for a REASONABLE amount of time? We will probably still be overmanned in May 2010.

That part was shocking.

I suggest reading the entire proposal, it does not read as an ultimatum on furlough. That decision will always lie with FDX Mgt, it appears to be an attempt to find a reasonable end to 4.a.2.b since it is undefined.

Take a look at the other thread for some other replies on this topic. How long should we give the Company to use 4.a.2.b. ? Right now they hold all the cards and I think they need to eventually prove the existence of an actual furlough that they are "preventing" or "delaying".

Isn't "preventing" or "delaying" a furlough a bit like, "creating" or "saving" 300,000 jobs? How can either be truly verified?

Man are you out to lunch, it is creating or saving 4,500,000 jobs. You do that buy canceling the F-22 so you can afford to give 4 million to acorn.

You shouldn't put all three of them in one car -- what if there's an accident?

You really seem to enjoy discussing politics. Or, at least giving us your view on political issues. It's so refreshing and informative. And, it never gets old reading it. You're a free thinking "Dittohead", you are.

Thank you.:rolleyes:

Glad to be of help;)

I thought that was part of the standard brief for all FX pilots........
