I think you need Windows Media Player to view it. Thats what mine came up on. For my 2 cents.... That should be played on ABC evening news all around the country. I thought it was great.

That certainly doesn't mean I'm against a better contract.

Hmmm. I suggest you start monitoring the upper half of the mesa seniority list. There are not a lot of guys leaving for major airline jobs...as best I could tell the small amount of attrition was retirements, military leave, medicals, and career changers (out of aviation). But if you ask around you will find many, many capatins that have interviewed and been declined by SWA.

Don't kid yourself about your chances of getting on with a major...they are low in general, and especially low at mesa.

How long are you willing to hang around mesa under the current conditions to find out?

Note: Onviously none of this applies if you have a very well connected relative in upper management at a major airline...in that case you just need 1000 pic.
