Congrats to the Eagle pilots. It's one thing to be an internet tough guy. It's another to do what the Eagle pilots have done by voting "no" on this contract after all the threats they have received from management concerning possible future job losses. Admittedly, I'm an outsider, but to me it's a pretty impressive show of unity. If I were a betting man, I would say it will pay off for all of you in a positive way in the future.

We, and our MEC should do everything to bolt and make the company convince us to stay. Am I worthy of this already concessionary contract or not?
I think most every FO on property has their apps in at the LLCs and legacies, the question is if we'll get called before this thing hits the ground.

He has a whole 27 posts. And not everybody is so lonely they have to log onto APC on the road. Heck most guys I know don't even bring a computer, and layover time is usually not spent on APC. I'd bet 98% of my posts are from home. Stick to flying, you'd make a lousy private I

I fully support the AE pilots, I have many college friends there. They have strong bargaining power, I hope they utilize it to it's max. IMHO should be on AA's seniority list and payroll right now.

PS I posted this in Richfield Minnesota, saved you the time from looking it up. Does this wrongly mark me as evil management now, since our HQ is here?? PS I am a line pilot.
Agree 100%. What are you thinking 80?


Nice job eagle!!!!!!!

All I know is this.

I was in the bar at one of the main AA training hotels.
A guy walked in "AA" pilot, ex flow, and shouted "Any Eagle pilots here...... The drinks are on me"

I s#it you not!
