We will see what happens though. I have been hearing the united rumor for some time. I could only imagine what would happen when dealing with seniority lists and such. O and I still want a contract first and foremost.

hahaha, you are right. i guess anything can happen, there were just so many rumors my friend and i were talking about that i just went for broke and put the top 4 on here. i could be wrong on all counts and would have to turn away with my tail between my legs, im not to proud to admit i am wrong.... and yes, contract is foremost for me too. the sad thing is i have no rumors on that.. as far as we all know our contract negotiations are going no where. i would like to know what the mediator said about colgan and our scope grievance. and even though it is january, we sure could use a "cooling off period". We will see what happens.

I heard the mediator appears ****ed at the pace of negotiations and the lethargic pace that the company is taking over with producing viable positions on which to bargain from. Scope is a mute isssue with him.

ROFLMAO! :D

Let's just hope GoJet doesn't get any Mesa flying if Mesa does get the boot. They did just set up an ORD base, after all. I would rather keep Mesa there than have Mesa flying given to GoJet...better to have guys who accept substandard pay and work rules than guys who backstab their fellow pilot group.

I hope 9E gets that flying if anyone gets it.

'08 will definitely be an interesting one. I can't imagine what the industry will look like this time next year.

It changes so fast in 6 months we may all be on top of the world again. Let's hope so for all our sakes.

Guys, this was just on CNN and NBC. Southwest Airlines to purchase Comair for an undisclosed amount. Check it out. www.cnn.com

:eek:

Amen to that..... it will even be a bigger shame for Gojet to be awarded any extra UAL flying. Would rather see it all go to PNCL if mesa was to loose it. Best of luck to the 9E with your contract talks and we hope that you will set a new industry high.
