In our "crew news sessions" he has for years said it was "the right thing to do to pay us all the same" all the while find every excuse not to. He has played us against each other. The F/As just overwhelmingly turned down their T/A without a seniority fight........
Despite false claims otherwise by a certain AA management person, most pilots at AA would be willing to sit down with Parker vs. AMR's term sheet annihilation.

I'm thinking that the current US pilot's food fight will distract us to your benefit.
