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

Donatelli also brought us the ADG of 5.15 a day which applies to reserves, 30 hr layovers, dh only duty periods and redeyes, NONE of which applied before (two day trips that paid reserves four hours anyone?). You should take a look at a ten year old bid package if you can find one. The trip values sucked.

TA1 was a failure but Donatelli did bring us real value prior to that, only no one remembers. TA2 was brought to you by John Malone, who understands the difference between false tough a la NWA-style perpetual middle fingers (which never yields anything except "likes" on social media) and the times to truly fight hard with pre-established support from the line pilots.

Inventing fake "outrage" via the crisis of the week ain't the way.

We had them long before FAR 117. Admittedly fewer but they were there...and paid far less than they do now.

i'll give you the 5:15 for it...but i'm guessing they existed before for cities that only had 1-2x daily service where you couldn't have enough rest to come in night prior and take the first flight out.....i wasn't here before 117 but i'm guessing they didnt exist in cities like RDU where they do now because the company uses it as a rest tool--required by 117 where before they didnt have a choice.

LOL......it read just fine.

Have a little self respect. The company is blatantly violating the contract. Stand up for yourself as well as our other pilots.

The appeasement mentality is gone, if only 44 would see that, we could actually become united. They just keep fighting to keep Moakism alive.

The MEC is as united as I’ve ever seen in 30 plus years.

Only a Scott and Sam are on the outside. The last gasp of management representatives.

The nominating ballots for the C44 election were mailed today.

Please do your part and fill them out.

I support :

Captains

Brent Allen
Derek Archer

First Officers

Jimmy Johnson
Jon Payne

I am not in C44 and my opinion cause some tears, but this election will seal the success of C2019. Atlanta is extremely powerful. With these four reps we are assured of a home run for our next contract.

It is critical that you vote if you are an Atlanta pilot.

These whiners want us to forget they were crying and begging to sell TA1.

“We will never get another penny!”

They almost cost us all hundreds of millions.

You’re welcome black shirt yes voters.

In the end.....during the most powerful negotiating period in history....we still came up with an agreement that was lackluster. Good job everyone. Keep up the good work!

Stop comparing Johnson's. Unity is the objective.

I love it! I’m only worried if Jimmy Johnson gets back in that the flower fund will become depleted!
