The process needs to be fixed for sure.
But since this is what we have now we have to know how it works for best results. |

Fact is that if we would have hung tough, they would have worked in an SJU layover or a crew change and deadhead home. We didn't, the union pulled the dispute, and we have that crappy trip on the books today. This is how our pairings start getting real bad..... There is a consequence for the rest of us when our fellow pilots fly these trips.... |

Yikes! I have NEVER flown a disputed pairing ("If" I did it was assigned on Reserve?) and I have NEVER crossed a picket line. I have to assume by your derogatory posting that you have (or at least that's OK with you!*?).
I accept your apology :eek::eek::eek: I believe the reference is to MM denying a training swap because there was nothing in it for him. I think that pretty clearly puts him in the "what's in it for me" camp. PIPE |

MM might be famous but not for anything to do with this thread. Pony up some facts or back down.

I am not necessarily a fan of MM and certainly not of his choice to block a swap, but there is a difference between that and flying a dp.
There is a tremendous difference between either of those and being a scab. I am not condoning or trying to excuse any of those actions, and deplore all of them to varying degrees. But lets not get carried away with the character assassinations please. |

Would you let a non-member jump in front of you or would you block the swap? Not saying that's the case but without knowing the circumstances, it's hard to pass judgement on why he did it. Maybe he had a reason. Or, maybe he was just being a Richard Cranium. I guess he knows. BTW, ANC #96/24 Jun is back in open time. |
