I also expect swa's scope. Ok, strong movement toward it.

Cripes, you guys need your own private board. How can you expect to negotiate a contract when you don't even have a freaking private forum??????????

Despite your obvious flame, after flying a blissful 5000+ hours in SWA's super-premium-narrowbody-life sentance, I have graduated from the joys of domestic aviation and the ever so exciting search for another rock bottom. Never to return. Is that really all you 've got. updownupdownupdownupdownflynakedcomparewatches.

You'll be happy for me, too because I'm sitting in left seat in June.

If that's the case, by all means tell me your story.
Hows the upgrade time looking over there now
Plenty of retirements to make up for that lack of growth? I guess you can staple all the AirTran guys that you're merging with... that'll help your upgrade time! Wait.. I wonder of the arbiter is going to go along with that? I guess you can enjoy flying right seat with a WN reject, right?
