With little to hide behind anymore, it will interesting to hear what the Eagle MEC will admit to. My guess is they are spending time determining their next legal hiding place. Everything they've done over the last few years was virtually ALL kept from the pilots under various "NDA's" pre and post bankruptcy. Never in the history of airline unionism has one elected representative team gone so far over the edge of faliure as this one. It's beyond simply incompetence and is arguably corrupt and a gross violation of their Duty of Fair Representation to those that elected them to represent their interests.

Unknown what Parker will do with Eagle (or AA for that matter). HE might not even be sure yet. I suppose the only thing you can count on going forward there is more B.S. from Euless. IMO, the best thing for you to do is follow the crowd and clean house and I think that's more important then ever now. If you ask me, these guys are going to place self-protection first and foremost and they are likely to continue selling you down the river to ensure that.

Godspeed.

Because it's ALPAs fault? Last I checked you vote in volunteers, you vote in a contact, and you have support from national...... Last I checked ALPA never voted for us?

lets see our cost,
pilot pay compares to mesa and gojets.

RAH and SKW/EJT are able to underbid us because eagle supplies ground personnel for a fee to all three and does not charge enough for it or gives it away for free at the direction of AA so there RFP's are low.

RAH, SKW/EJT do not use acars to the extent to that we do if they use any, this has a cost to eagle, the load closeout program used at eagle is costly compared to the paper ones used at RAH, SKW/EJT.

The high cost of leases AE pays AA for gates, computer, fuel, jet bridges etc; which subsidize RAH and SKW/EJT ASA contracts. Whether there were other feeders or not these cost to eagle would still be there.

shut this F'n place down.

I don't know about RAH but SKW/XJT does use acars for w/b as well as for a multitude of other things. Either way we all are subject to our regionals for a lot longer than we originally planned.
