I'm 40 years old and my life experience far exceeds anything your mom and dad let you do in their basement. Consider this our last interaction troll. Run along and be happy you have the Internet to be tough. We both know you'd wet yourself in real life.

AA late with matching 1st year? yes, can't argue that but they will come around and become competitive.
Since you have such strong opinions about management, did you apply for either of the Chief Pilot positions that are open?
My career is going just fine. I've volunteered but since I'm not the "right type of guy" I didn't get a call back. Not interested in helping bail out this company. I'll get my time, with my military background and move along. AA has invested a lot but a little bit of paint and some new signs and PSA goes away but AA gets to keep THEIR investment. They invested a lot in Envoy too but that didn't stop them from giving away the aircraft. Since you're such a cheerleader and think this management is amazing, did you apply? They're always looking for new yes men.

Biggz, Mitchrapp
Why don't you guys just ask the PSA union, screen name 272922. He's a regular on this forum and is accustomed to addressing these kinds of issues right here openly, but you have to ask him. He is on record here saying the union will back you for a variety of issues.

Why not begin the entire process with a group that is more experienced. There is no point in making the same mistakes that ASA/Expressjet made just very recently ie negotiating more years then the length of the contract itself (and then in the end trashing the entire process and settling for an extension only).

PSA should take notes and learn a little. Maybe next vote you won't take less money to fly bigger planes.
