You can use your real name as your screen name. Your profile has your actual name in any event.
"Only UAL pilots ( past or present)." including flippin' scabs - no thanks.

Also, isn't that the forum that is NOT owned by UAL pilots, affiliated with the UAL MEC, ALPA, or United airlines? How much legal pressure would it take for the owners to provide the entire database to a lawyer.

A forum that's not affiliated with UAL or UAL pilots, but is using the pilot database to verify "status"? Anyone else smell a rat?

Dude,

Take a chill pill. Read any court documents from the recent trial? UAL had no problem getting what they needed for submission from either board.

If you want a board to discuss anything UAL with UAL guys/gals, you have one available. If you want to discuss illegal activity or promote it on a forum or thru email, you aren't safe anywhere. The DOJ confiscated many a computer from lots of folks not named in the lawsuit and pulled archives from their ISP providers.

Feel safe now? You want something from your MEC then tell them to read some of the CAL Magenta lines posted here.

As for SCABS, I won't say what I want to. The few I've had the displeasure of working with don't visit these boards unless working for mgmt on the side. As I said above, MEC or 2172 boards were all over the company exhibits. Do you think something magically changed?

Frats,
Lee

You are still responsible for your words, but less likely to be the brunt of personal retaliation from the various factions.
WHAT's to stop someone from hijacking your date of hire and employee number? They aren't that secret.

I only hope the virus that has hit the forum has infected Wallach in the same manner. Perhaps his own personal shutdown would be of better interest to the UAL pilots, than his continued so called leadership.

Do you think that you may have been the virus that closed the UAL forum. Makes sense, it stops your political campaign and your management concessionist agenda. Pilot dues should not go toward giving you the pulpit to attack the most effective union leadership since 2001.

And, what did you mean by "his own personal shutdown" was that a call for one of your wacko friends to do something to Wallach? It sounds like you are either threatening violence or encouraging others to do so. If you are only wishing his demise because of a virus, just remember, Karma has a way of sorting these things out.

Baron,

Not sure who you think I am but I am a lurker on the ALPA forum due to the amount of fringe lunatics that live there. I will check in to read a few post and see the same 5 guys tossing grenades and B.S. and log off. There is truly very little useful information there anyway. Guys arguing over whether the BW Redondo is better than another hotel and some other clowns tossing "burn it down" comments.

As for the personal shutdown of Wallach, no violence intended. Only a thug unionist would not recognize that from the post. Wallach is a disaster and the apologist for him look more and more like a group of crazy's on the street corner. You guys have painted our union into a corner. This union is more divided now than at any time in our history. This all can be attributed to Wallach and his actions. Maybe we can get a new wristband to solve all of our problems

ALPA Forum still closed for "Virus"

Yeah right!

I have a Bridge for sale too!


Also the MEC voted down the chance for our Furloughee's to post on the Forum.

What Brotherhood we have, and THANKS for pi$$ing all over the UAX pilots and there commute! UAL-MEC Jumpseat is a BIGGER JOKE!

ALPA.........YOU ARE A JOKE!

UFB.

So I guess longevity is out of the question too?

BTW:

I find it hard to have much sympathy for Express. They may have lost some jumpseat stuff (their fault not ours) but are picking up a whoooole bunch of our flying while we will have 1000 on the street soon. F'em.

If that is really true I'd like confirmation. That's worse than the Airtran $25 nonsense that used to go on....
