Why did Lee Moak spend more than an hour or two in the Compass crewroom in the past few days talking to crews and answering questions? I figured he'd have bigger fish to fry...unless there is something in the works that we don't know about. :confused:

Because he didn't go to a non-mainline crewroom in those bases.

And in the past he has nearly ignored CPZ pilots at union meetings. Suddenly he spends time in one of their crewrooms talking to crews and answering questions.

Conspiracy? No, not what I meant at all. But it just seems a bit odd and opposite the previous attitude he's had towards contract lift, that's all.

The result: almost exactly the DAL proposal. Any objective analysis reveals that we NWA guys got our a$$e$ kicked. Our proposal lost completely. The only thing we got was the pull and plug. Now that advantage is GONE after one PRIP.

I think you and all the DAL-S guys will understand that the best way to make (and keep) friends is to not complain to the losing side. You do not know what it's like to lose completely...we do. Let's just keep quiet and move on.

It is of course Carl.. a matter of perspective. What the NWA guys are going to benefit from is the economic downturn. Blockhead didn't alloow for that now did he? After we have all been bumped out of our seats in a few weeks... when the economy turns back up... MY current seat will be filled by DC9 and A320 guys... the same guys that cannot now hold anything even resembling a widebody aircraft. (And yes... the 767 is a widebody) And... after that occurs I won't get back to me seat for many years. So who lost (or will lose) is all a matter of perspective, isn't it? But I'll make you a deal. I won't talk about this anymore if you won't.

Yes we do, and I will get on that Fly4. Hopefully he was there.

No..Not anymore. I was one of the new hire wonders that went to NYC-ER then ATL-ER and then got the boot to the 88. I like it though, Plus..it is what I should have ben hired into so no hard feelings.

I wasn't kidding about the red dress!!!:)
