Certainly an easy prediction about timing when one side has the power to self-fulfill their own (or their sugar daddy's) prophesy, don'tcha think?

Thanks for remembering that. It's funny how the ALPAholics are now coming after me for lying and only highlighting one side, when I must have said 50 times: "Everything you need to know is in the actual TA language. Read the actual language."

Turns out, a lot of pilots did just that.

So far, the unofficial spokesperson for Team No (gzsg) is 0 for 2. He said we'd have another TA within 48 hours, and he said the E190s were here to stay.

JMO.
DM,

Team No said we would be screwed if we voted in the TA. Sixty-five percent of us agreed.

That's all that really matters.

Team ALPA might want to listen to us.



It's funny how you want to make gzsg the Team No spokesperson when a lot of us disagreed with his predictions.

Why don't you take hockey, Carl, Denny, Ferd's and others predictions? I bet if you answered truthfully you might find out why the TA failed so badly.


Hint: You hi lighted the stats that suited you (gzsg: 0-2) and ignored the ones that didn't (Hockey, Carl, et al.: 8-8). Figuratively, you made 80% look like 0%.

The above is why the TA failed and why the people you support shouldn't be listened to, because that's what they did, too.

750k is Dalpa fuzzy math. Not even Dug is debating that the real number is far, far more than that.

Team LA says the company would like to negotiate now.

Team Delta pilots aka team NO would like to delay that until we have an opportunity to allow the various local teams an opportunity to re-allocate and re-vet their team captains.

My guess some of those new team captains will have a say in who the coaching staff will be.

Then team Delta pilots aka team NO will negotiate in good faith on behalf of the delta pilots.

Doug, you can sit on the bench but thanks for being on the side of team Delta pilots.

To move dpa closer to replacing alpa? Which I guess would end alpa national.

So they spent 750k to end alpa?

Ha.

Team Yes vs Team Delta Pilots.

Good job Team Yes for not thinking that through.
