Hold that thought and I will return.

P.S. AVATAR: I'm embarassed that my ankles are showing. I will look for a more flattering picture. LOL


Well, we could get even less pay when we are flying 400 people across the pond for 12 hrs and each one tips $1.00. How do the tips get split between captain and fo? I certainly wouldn't want to fly during the slow winter months with only a handful of passengers on board.

Oh, and yes you look fat in those pants :eek:

Delta thread ? This thread is the butt of many jokes. Would it make you feel safer if you thought that nobody was listening.

The pope is thinking the same thing.


I know you just come on here to flame for whatever reason it may be. This is your warning.

I think it might have been a rhetorical question. ;)

So what if ANA does merge with JAL? Where does that leave AMR and where does that leave everyone else flying in and out of Japan?

My whole point was to demonstrate that the method the NWA MEC used to heal their divisions was to create a new dragon to slay. You can't understand how to fix your problems unless you understand where they came from.
So you are saying all N issues are just self created? Your hubris is amazing...



If you are trying to say there weren't deep divisions in your pilot group and in your MEC when this process started then you just are not being serious.
Divisions yes, but not near what you try to portray. You are using this as a red herring to shift any possibility that perhaps the deals offered by the former DAL MEC were not as beneficent and benevolent as you'd like us to believe.


You yourself mentioned the hard feelings some North guys have and if you don't recognize the part your former MEC played in creating those hard feelings then you are really not being serious.

I am not looking for blame, I am looking for acknowledgment of where the problem started and how it has to get fixed.
Sure, we just dreamed it all up, everything is just hunky dory in Pleasentville and we have an attitude problem. I feel all better now. Do I have to believe in a higher power too?



There is no outside observer that would look at the communications from each MEC in 2008
Psssst. It's 2010. No one from the 2008 fNW MEC administration is around any more.



I will make a deal. If you can get your "friend" who is a rep to get some number of fNWA reps to make a clear statement that this duty rigs grievance is not worth pursuing and is being handled properly by CA then I will believe you are moving to the high ground. As long as you let this boil fester, I don't believe you are truly trying to move on.
Utter bovine scatology. I believe it's up to the voting Reps to decide how they want to move on these and whether they have merit or not. Please educate us as to why they are without merit in your opinion?



Wait, I thought you hated the Moakastration? Maybe Lee doesn't have quite as many horns as were painted on him in the last two years. I have known Lee for many years now, I have no doubt he did a good job.
Hate is your word, not mine. Moakastration was tongue in cheek. Democracy is great as long as you get it your way, other wise, bully, cajole, and gerrymander :eek:.
