Anyways, get over it. It doesn't hurt my feelings if people think I look like a sheep. Its not a big deal and I don't need some anonymous stranger to tell me what I shouldn't go around doing.

I don't have anything against integration of lists. I do, however, not look forward to that being turned into yet another union fiasco. I don't want a US east/west war here.
But, like I've said over and over, ain't gunna happen. Not as long as we're non-union.

I think the XJT pilot group will be equal to the ASA group with respect to my pilot group. No effect.
So, if I get a non-pilot job, will I be spared the horrors ? Will I get 14 or more days off a month in that job ? Do I have to move to St. George ?

I know what you mean. I don't think anybody wants that. I agree, its not likely that that will happen. I was just curious what your thoughts were and if they are similar concerns to other pilots at SKW.

There's no mumbling around the crew lounge about merging lists. I doubt virtually anybody even gives it much thought. Why would they? The mold has been set with ASA, and while I don't predict the exact same outcome with XJT, there's no reason to think that SkW pilots are at risk.
Just spent four days with a guy who supported ALPA in our last drive. XJT did come up, but he never asked or suggested there would be a list merger.
Neither did I. That thinking seems to be largely at XJT, based on internet ramblings.

I think that the only reason why hear XJT pilots mention it is because our contract requires it and JA made it a deal breaker.

It seems that Mr. Prater is having a tough time over there at ALPA. I'll bet you're just the guy to put a big smile on his face. Go, Super... Pilot... go... Super... Pilot...
