Always with the negative waves...

Maybe, maybe not. You going to honor the line if they are released? Some of your yo-talking compadres say they won't.

If it EVER happens, frontier will either be separate or gone. Good luck though...

That is evading the question

I'm with Hetman on this, why not wish them well? We all get it, f9 and RAH hasn't been a 'match made in heaven' but come on. You have a pilot group that has a horrible contract and is trying to improve it. Instead of making some snide remark, come up with something productive to say. I'm sure for about 98% of the RAH guys they understand they're not going to be released anytime soon. They feel this was the next best step in regards to their management not coming to the table with anything to improve their four sections.

Pilots are always talking about groups either 'raising/lowering the bar'. RAH certainly hasn't raised it anytime lately but don't you think this might be step in the right direction. It would not surprise me to see RAH get more support from other groups besides f9, which is truely unfortunate. I for one hope the RAH pilot group doesn't have to even worry about a strike but if that's what happens; I'll see you in DEN or IND or where ever. Save a sign for me.

I can't believe the RLA hasn't been repealed yet... so rediculously one-sided towards management... ALPA should just strike release or not... what are they going to do, fire everyone? there aren't enough pilots left to fill those gaps... it's time the government let unions actually fight for their representatives instead of letting management do whatever they want to "protect essential services"

Tool of the day....just some washed up F9 pilot who couldn't get hired at a major.

Well, I'm Thankful to have a job. I'm thankful that we have the freedom of expression, brought to us by the brave men and women that have fought and died for us for years and are currently deployed to awful places putting their lives at risk to continue to protect our rights and safety.

Stop and think about the young men and women that are at a FOB, never knowing when they will be attacked, forced to kill or be killed, then compare it to where you're sitting today.

Think about the number of people that don't have anything close to what we have or the people that are in hospitals this evening. It could be a lot worse and today seems like a good day to cut everyone a break.

I wish everyone the best of luck in their careers, regardless of where they work or how different their opinions may be from my own.

Constant bickering, attacking, comparing what we have to that of others, takes more effort than trying to find common ground. Finding common ground is also infinitely more peaceful and has a chance of bringing satisfaction and happiness than always going for the negative aspect of life, love and career.

I'm ecstatic that the thread, "RAH: "The start of a new direction..." has finally moved to page two, if just for today.

Peace.

As a Frontier pilot, this question concerns me, not because of what Frontier pilots will do but what "native" Republic pilots will expect. I would like to here your definition of "honor". I am happy to show my support for the betterment of another pilot group. I am concerned that some of the natives believe that F9 pilots should strike with them (if/when the "natives" strike). This shows no understanding of airline labor law.

Can someone at the IBT tell us what is expected of United, Delta, US Airways, and Frontier pilots if the RAH pilots strike? What is expected by other pilot groups represented by the IBT?

It's called walking the line and showing your support. Doesn't matter that you're not under the same CBA. You can still participate on your days off or anytime you're not working.

Once again, it's not mainline's CBA. Not sure why the F9ers don't understand that. RAH pilots are asking for your support because these are your brothers and sisters fighting for a better QOL. Also, only F9 is a part of the IBT. UniCo, Airways, AA, and DL are neither in the same union or under the same CBA. So to answer your question, we don't expect anything from them.

Asking for my support?!!! Brothers and sisters?!!!! No, I'm the step sister whose has been raped by her "brothers". NO - I'm not a member of the IBT and never will be.
