Except for Lindy and Jimmy Stewart, aviation has always had a bias against tall folk. Go look at the uniform collections at any air museum.:D

Yeah I have a lot of time in the classic 737. Had a great time, and a lot of fun. I am not particularly looking forward to returning though...

When management added it all up, they described our contract as cost neutral and further stated that those cost savings would allow for funding initiatives for the benefit of other employee groups.

Which group do you think management is more concerned about being honest with about the numbers--Wall Street analysts who are paid to check the math and routinely analyze what a company says to what the quarterly/yearly numbers actually are, or a group of DALPA guys who also benefit from touting a big number and can use the purported cost to claim a win? :eek:

Yet the company could show a huge debt load, and you wouldn't believe THAT... Choose one. I don't care which, but choose a source if you are gonna play the all or nothing game.

How did you post on this forum with Tapatalk? I didn't think Tapatalk worked with APC?

When Richard signs the quarterly statements he can go to jail for securities fraud if he misstates something. The same thing goes for disclosures to financial analysts. I don't believe there is any penalty for lying, misstating, exaggerating or misleading us or DALPA.

I have always given greater weight to his statements to Wall Street.

I think the vote preparations are taking precedence

Worked like a champ on my iPhone 5s. I had never tried it before, but it seemed to work pretty seamlessly.
