Quote: Very funny. But it worked. Spirit had a more compelling case than just the online message board, they had numerous phone recordings of pilots admiting to the work slow down.

Point well taken though, we need to be careful and smart!
I'm still waiting for proof that those phone calls were to actual Spirit pilots, and not to Riddle Interns reading off of a cue card in exchange for a 50% off Sportys Pilot Shop coupon.

Hey guys EdForceOne is right. We need to lay low and focus on the end game. I think he has a great point and I seriously doubt this "mistake" was unintentional. Lets not fall for these ploys like Spirit. Fortunately we get to learn from their mistakes. We are on a roll and the ball is working its way into our court.
Thanks EdForceOne for paying attention!!

You should know that management is probably reading and recording every post on this board.

MEC update
New MEC update email today. As expected not looking too promising.

I actually read it as quite promising. Sure it shows that the company is doing absolutely nothing in terms of negotiating with us, and no it doesn't look like we will get anything negotiated in the next two week session.

But is that bad? I think its exactly as expected. The company will either push this to the 11th hour or actually allow us to strike. We've communicated our willingness to do so, we've done our jobs...it is the company which is painting itself in bad light and simply giving us more ammo and the NMB less reason not to release us sooner than later.

1.5% for LOA 67...AFTER the arbitrator told them to negotiate...yeah the NMB will love that.

Don't be surprised if Frontier ends up convincing the NMB to schedule more sessions beyond September. Be ready financially for a strike, but emotionally for this to drag on.

I'm plenty prepared for both. However, given the companies history, and after speaking with our union, the tone from the NMB is that there will be no further negotiations. Enough of their time has been wasted. We are currently going through the motions required. Just have to keep our heads down for a little longer.

A contract is not around the corner by any means, but I'm hard pressed to believe the NMB is going to allow future negotiations given their current angst.

Not an F9 pilot, just wanted to say you guys are doing a great job. The way I see it and it seems many of you feel the same way is management knows they're on the losing end here and trying to bait someone into an emotional response. You guys are gonna win this one.
