You'll get them, and they'll look cool as hell, but the pay scale will be less that than the current ERJ scale...

My bet says on the off chance U and AA merge, it will AA as the surviving entity and name. The aircraft will be operated under a new One World livery and that will include all future One World members and regionals.

At the very least, limiting aircraft to no larger then E-175's and providing future furlough protection (into Captains seats) for AA pilots should AA shrink and the E-175's take that flying and those jobs.

You're wishing us the best to uphold the profession, right ?

not saying we SHOULD take concessions, just saying that well most likely be offered the chance to get all the replacement aircraft if we give them what they want. The question is how much will they want. If its just a couple dollars difference then its worth it. Much more then that will be bad IMO. I really don't see them cutting FO's that much. Its our senior captains that will get whacked, since the company will be even more happy if the cuts force some of those senior guys to move on.

Hey you go girl and uphold that profession!

Just don't expect those of us at Eagle who might not have it in our plans to go to AA to fall on our sword for your 'profession'.

Until (if) we are 'one list', there is no loyalty to your job over the one paying my mortgage as far as I am concerned.

Nicely said, I always get a kick out of those guys that say you dont want any more aircraft at AE or XJT. Well I do pretty dam good here and could careless about mainline. They want us to take one for them, yeh right! Well, you take one for us first. Then I'll think about it!
We both know this is a your one way street with a big yellow stripe up the middle of it, get the pun?

No problem there pumpkin. The pilots here are aware that you're gunning for more AA flying.

Hugs and kisses for everyone here !

Hey, put that thing away, I'm not that kind of girl.

And I don't care what flying you think is 'yours'. That only matters in a strike. If you want all of OUR flying (or whoever else will be soon flying OUR routes), then APA shouldn't have let us have it in scope clauses in the first place, and then accept the complications of a "one list" and fight for it back. Good luck with that one!

Otherwise why do I care?
