Vs.

Old school NWA style of fighting for everything, drawing lines in the sand, never leading the industry in anything, making their own pilot miserable, and morale being in the gutter.

But hey, shutting the VB LOA, SIL LOA, antagonistic comms, etc are certainly worthy of a few chest bumps.
As far as your first paragraph goes I disagree......like a marriage gone bad, it may have been give and take in the beginning when the relationship was new but over the years, one party started taking advantage of the other (take, take, take with no give). I would much prefer the marriage to continue but that will require the company to give more to maintain the relationship. I don’t foresee this happening.

Were you former NW? I’m not. But maybe there does need to be a more definitive line between the Company and the Union.

Everything you state (except Dalpa hasn’t shutdown SIL LOA yet) is contractually valid. As in no violation of the contract by the union. Can you say the same thing about the Company or do I have to go back and list all the recent Company violations. (plural)

No man. Your LDAL argument just got torpedo’d.

Your both only half correct. The LDAL group brought us the turd of TA-1 - the Pilots wisely rejected it. Then we got a much better TA-2. The hardcore LNW types wanted us to reject it - the Pilots wisely passed it.


Bottom line - LDAL group was too acquiescing. The LNW group was too intransigent. Despite that the Pilot group got it right both times.

Are you implying that TA2 was a result of NWA negotiations?? I think not.

As with almost all things in life, moderation is the key to success. Pendulum swings generally have less benefit to the group in my experience.

Agreed. Unfortunately, we have gone from the mentality that got us TA1 to almost a DPA like one on the MEC now. The pendulum has swung way past moderation.
