Oh really? Then why are you and Creed on Hershons Facebook page calling for more recalls?

I don't know about celebrations, but uncertainty yes. I doubt the majority share your "celebration" sentiment, the last letter from Ryan and James explaining their actions is far from a celebration. What's done is done, and I speak from myself, they will get my full support, specially this year, even if I disagree with their timing.

I'm not, just went back and checked.

Worked out about the same as the other fellas would have, I guess.

Pilots being hired today, generally speaking, have been through it all. I'm indifferent as to whether this helps or hurts us. It is what it is. And what's done is done. Time will tell.

Ackerman has leadership experience from Mesa and World (IBT).

Great...one has a notoriously sh!tty contract and the other is no longer in business. How can we possibly go wrong with this change?

What are you saying? Ackerman is OK as rep but not ok as interim MEC chair? Are you forgetting that he won the election based on his backround?

We are all very lucky that these 4 reps have done the right thing at such a pivotal time. I am extremely pleased. I'm sorry that Hershon and Degrenier chose a different path.

Anyone that chooses to damage his chances for a new contract by attacking his MEC has no place on this board.

Lets not do 2007 again please.
