Awesome....Biohazard in the cockpit, you can delay/cancel flights while still in negotiations and still not violate any labor laws.

Make sure its absolutely clean and safe before you sign off on anything!!!

I think this was just a rumor to start infighting. From friends still flying, it seems that many support the pilot group in what they are doing, and have been very polite and helpful.

I concur with that statement Bored One thing that Indigo has done well is: PO'ed everyone, pax, working group at NK (rampers, mech's, CSA, FA's, pilots, etc.), the FAA, the Government, etc etc.

Everyone, I've come in contact with says, "we are right behind you 100%!"

Time to show Miramar and Indigo that WE do have the COJONES.

Did anyone notice Spirit just posted that they'll start service to Barranquilla July 29th?
I guess they're still leaning forward.

they are planing to increase flying in Central and South America. Looking at
75% of their operation there and the rest here. So...plans to move forward they have!

The question is, are we on those plans?

Default Whackmaster's Idea

-"Ladies and Gentleman,

As we countdown to the end of the Spirit cooling off period (set to expire at 12:01 a.m. on June 13th), I would like to set up a strike fund for their pilot group in order to help them through what looks to be an ugly battle ahead.

As an ALPA carrier, their strike benefits only kick in after being out for more than 30 days and even then it's only $1,400 a month. This is not only the Spirit Airlines fight, but ALL of our's as well. It's about defending the profession.

With that said, I know there was a fund set up for the Amerijet pilots during their strike. Is there anybody on this forum that was instrumental in getting that going or can put me in contact with someone who was? Please PM me with any pertinent information. Thank you.
"-

This fellow just posted today, I think it's a great idea, can anyone kind of guide him on what to do!, I don't know the first thing on how to manage this account.
