Ditto.

When i saw them in the ALPA survey i knew they will be part of C2015. Most pilots won't give them a glance when they vote. Look how DALPA hide them the first go.

Think of all the airports within 2.5 hours of ATL and SLC. Will be a nightmare.

DPA lawsuit dropped against ALPA for hacking. New lawsuit about to be filed against specific individuals that DPA claims to have ousted. Stay tuned.

Same here..automatic no vote for me. Imagine how much negotiating capital we'll have to spend to get rid of them once they become established as "past practice".

Visited the alternative site today..my short time on APC and the responses from my rep regarding CDO's has got me thinking about donuts. What is their stand on this issue?

Counts as one duty period, no break, thus the "Continuous Duty".

Looks like they know how to play baseball in Missouri.


Go Cards! Go Royals! We need another I-70 series with a different result.

Seriously? You mean the guys that are apparently looking for blood from a fellow Delta pilot (if any "hacking" even took place.)

I don't want any part of a crowd that is trying to harm one of us for political traction. Even if everything they allege is true, it was such a stupid prank that I can't believe we're even still talking about it.

They'll claim until the cows come home that they are simply defending their right to contest representation, but this is really about being vindictive and trying to get a few "sensation" points. I don't have any skin in this either way, but it pi$$es me off that TC and the gang won't let this go. It appears they will settle for nothing less than a public shaming (at best) or ruining somebody's career (totally unacceptable) all for a little attention.

Not singling you out CG, but your post happened to be the first one I saw after reading TC's latest editorial.

Hell no! That's in my survey. Hell no. Where's the FAA on this crap? How is this even possible?

Fly me to the max day possible and then put me to bed. That's all I ask.

But would you fly it if it were a 0.5 hour flight from ATL-AGS, 6 hours behind a hotel door--never ever reducible--and the 0.5 hour flight back? Apparently that is how NWA did it for a long time and guys liked it.
