Since the two airlines have different unions and since the Eagle pilots have shown so much pettiness about Chicago in their treatment of Chautauqua pilots, any merger will be by staple. Since the Eagle pilots have shown their true colors in how they treated the Chautauqua pilots and their own senior pilots, it would serve them right too.

Seriously? you are a douch bag. I hope not all RAH pilots are pompous brats like yourself.

AE is not for sale. this is a violation of a collective bargining agreement between AMR and Eagle ALPA. you obviously have no idea what or how a pilot union is supposed to conduct business.

I usualy keep quite on here but your comments sir disgust me.

Of course he doesn't understand how a union works. He works for Replacement Air Holdings. They replaced Midwest pilots and put them on the streets, they are starting to replace Frontier pilots, and Eagle pilots are next. They can't even get a REAL pilots union to represent them.

According to the American Beagle President at a Presidential meeting last year, the airline is for sale. Whether or not this is an Am-Ron ploy to mess with the Arrogant Phallus Association, I do not know, but he seemed certain Beagle would no longer be a wholly-owned by 2014.

The good news is that, if true, I'm sure this is more about dodging scope restrictions than dumping the Beagle for Brand X or Y, so you'll probably still have a job.

OTOH, the best potential buyer for Beagle would be your friend at Replacement Air Holdings. Do they merge pilot lists or staple?

Neither. Ask the Midwest pilots.

So how's that union at Skywest working out for you? Fly any trips that used to be flown by DL 737-200s, 727s, or UA 737s lately? Are you even old enough to know the answer?

PS I agree the guy you're quoting comes off as a completely immature "me" type. But your incessant bashing of RAH from, well, Skywest is laughable.

Is it just me, or does it seem like RAH is slowly taking over the world?? I have this mental picture of BB sitting in a big swivel chair stroking a white cat.

Actually, many if not all of the Midwest pilots will have the opportunity to come over here once arbitration is complete. So how many pilots exactly aren't flying at Delta and United, and ironically even Midwest for a while, because passengers are being forced to fly in the back of your uncomfortable jets?

Sad but true. It will be okay though, I heard that the Rat is learning to fly helicopters and there are plenty of tall brick smokestacks in Indy.

They are not being forced, they chose the lowest air fare!

And how many do you think will come back for the awful rates you have? $37 an hour for a 100 seat....oops, I mean 99 seat airplane? You got to be joking. The Midwest guys are not struck with shiny jet syndrome that they will fly for those rates. They have backbone. They know what unity is.
Let's see how many of them come over to Rah.
