Don't spoil their celebrating with truth, they don't get it anyway.

When your MEC chairman, Bill Sprague and ALPA national literally LAUGHED in the PDT neg comm's faces when they told the group AAG would be coming to us and that they needed to make a deal beforehand otherwise we would for survival... Bill even came up to them AFTER and told them that would never happen. Ask your current MECC if you don't believe me.

That's the truth.

Cradle to grave. I truly hope AWAC becomes part of the WO'D family too

I'd like to see that under the current pay scale and contract. But I somehow doubt AAG sees it that way.

Well I certainly saw the results of your repeated no votes. Less of an offer each time. No thanks. I chose to take an offer I found more than acceptable and one that lets me enjoy my stable job and grows my airline. Oh well.

If regional airlines would just ban together and not vote any concessions, then scumbags like Doug Parker wouldn't get away with the sh!t he does. You do know he is laughing all the way to the bank because he knows he played everybody. ALPA has really failed us (regional pilots) in that regard. In this climate, it's virtually inconceivable that pilots still vote in concessions. And being WO'd by a Doug Parker ran airline wouldn't leave me with a very comforting feeling. That man wouldn't think twice about letting your family starve if it meant another dollar in his pocket.

Anyone know what's going on right now with hiring. Im expected to get to mins in a month and I haven't gotten a call to interview yet. A Philly base would be driving distance for me so thats pretty great.

So much amount of respect that all 3 WO voted in crap contracts so they could get the flying.

Half our fleet dies at 80k cycles in a year and a half. Deal with it.
