Cool Sounds like XJ might be the big winner

I am hearing from real good sources that since XJ did not gain in the contract that Bloch has given them a better deal on the list(which is the way it should be). We will find out Monday I guess.

The ramper's baby daddy doesn't count as a 'real good source'.

Nothing has been released or hinted beyond a release date. I've asked those directly involved. It may be wishful thinking. Have you guys at XJ actually looked at what DOH does? Sure, Colgan gets thown under the bus (can you say staple) but the only part of your list that gains are the super senior. I actually go up more in the XJ "DOH" method than I do even under the pinnacle method.

Non-9E folks knock the pinnacle method, but you may want to actually think of the method if applied instead of screaming what you THINK in logic.

1.......2.......3......stay calm.....breathe......NO!!!!!

I tell you what you can do with your "real good sources".....you can hop in your blue and gray flight suit...get in to your SAAB....(oh I'm sorry those are disappearing that's right we saved you from that one)...get in to your 200's....(darn you got those from us too)...ok you got some "9's"....get in to that....your shiny pretty jet!!!!
How about both you and your friend get in your pretty shiny jet!!! Both you guys take out your crayons....and write a pretty little wish Mesaba list in your blue and gray crayons....then turn them sideways and stick them straight up your.....(you can finish the rest)

My statement above is just about as ridiculous as the one you made...stop trying to start a fight on APC. It's just stupid!!! Get over yourself your blocking your own vision...rant over!!! I can't believe some people....

1. Grow up with the "pick a fight" rumors.
2. That is totally illogical thinking anyways....
3. I heard from Obama he was gonna give 9e pilots a better deal since they are the ones that stuck to their guns and didn't take managements "last best and final offer" for 5 years and they were the purchasing airline......(which is the way it should be)

You think it'll make it 10 pages before closure?? That is quite possibly the biggest "pick a fight" starter I've read in here without a closer as the next post lol.

I'm kinda shocked the SLI thread hasn't been closed yet after reading the last few pages.

It's amazing how much information everyone knows when, in fact, no one actually knows anything except Senior Bloch.
