ygtb kidding me. I've never brought colgan pilots into any of my posts. It's not their fault. DO a little search of my post before you throw false accusations....

why don't you educate me as to what the scope lawsuit was about......it says plain as day in our contract any flying will be done by pilots on the Pinnacle seniority list. Pinnacle forms Pinnacle Corp and buys Colgan to award turboprob flying to pilots who they can pay less money to....hires like crazy for a while on the COlgan side, meanwhile we are displacing CA's

Scope is there to prevent other pilots from another seniority list flying your aircraft/routes etc, and also to prevent the purchase/lease of aircraft for another company to be flown by the other company. If you have a different definition I would like to hear it....

 

Well played, 250...

 

My questions are: since it appears RAH will own Midwest sooner than later, when are the 717s going, are Midwest pilots interested in integrating, and could you fly for RAH given recent history?

Also is Republic going to fly 190s on the Midwest cert or the Republic cert or some other cert?

 

I hope he's denied a position on the RAH seniority list.

 

What goes around comes around.

 

Maybe Willie flies and open air biplane and likes to free his willie in the air stream at 100mph.....only a thought.

 

That is not true. NO other regional has negotiated rates and rules for 190's. Until RAH did it, there was no industry standard for it...

what does that have to do with taking their jobs? what is the point of that statement... help the rest of us out here...

again... what does this have to do with it?

You are taking their job.... not by walking past their pickline as a newhire of Midwest.... but by your company signing a contract that says you will do all of their flying, and you'll bring your own airplanes to do it... same end result... they didn't hire you directly to replace them, they hired your company to hire you to replace them... same end result... actually worse, since Boeing jobs are being replaced with EMB's...

So, regarding the jumpseat.... what did you expect?

Keep telling yourself that. Nobody else negotiated rates for 190's.... that will probably change now, since you guys have lowered the bar so much, others will be forced to compete or lose their jobs because of you too...

Already answered, over and over again, by everybody. if you don't grasp that concept by now, just give up

You guys should hear yourselves.... you say the same things, and sound exactly like the folks who are already on a really long list that gets passed from pilot to pilot, and is used regularly when deciding to accept jumpseaters or not....

you don't vote on anything to become a sc$%^b.... your actions dictate the title.... as for preventing it... the first chance to do that was in 2003 when your pilot group accepted and negotiated for 190's... the second chance was when you actually showed up to replace another pilot who had been furloughed/locked out.

Here you go again, trying to rationalize what you're doing. There is a difference between being bought and merged, and furloughed/locked out and repalced....

 

Wasn't there a similar case involving RAH.... with the court ruling that Republic Holdings and Republic Airlines were basically alter-ego's of eachother...

Sounds like you guys have a good case... good luck.

 

Like you sig says Mason. Fly the contract and nothing more. That's what we're doing and that's what Midwest guys are doing. ALPA dropped the ball huge by allowing a hole big enough for a shark like BB to drive a Mac truck through.

 

That sounds like

Delta - Comair and now Northwest-Compass et all...
USAir - Mesaba-Piedmont
AMR - AA & AE


Nothing new there my friend
