I'm not the one complaining or bringing SLI up, although I don't think I won. Btw, you don't even know where I am at, how do you know I don't know what losing is? Like I said, it is funny listing to LUAL complain, they got almost exactly what they asked for (yes that is winning) yet still complain.

LCAL guy here who had furloughed pilots go above him.

This merger has worked out so well and my seniority progression has exceed all my expectations that I have zero complaints.

I didn’t feel this way when the SLI was released but, with the benefit of hindsight, this merger was the best thing to happen to my career.

Most of us feel that way, which is why nobody really talks about the SLI anymore, except a few people who just like to complain.

Sing it, sister!!!

It’s odd to me to see the LCAL this and LUAL that whining on this board when the combined company has CRUSHED anything either airline did solo. We are all so much better off than we were 10 years ago.

Back to complaining that someone didn’t plug the headset in then.

Ask a 2005 hire how that worked out for him. And the G Tard will probably still complain.



It is what it is.


A 2005 hire had a career equal to or better than a Lual 1998 hire. I’m not sure I see the problem.

Ok now THAT is a complaint I can get behind =)

Except on the Uber Guppy I complain when someone left the headset plugged IN.

Your company was leveraged to the hilt. Going out of business if they didn't merge (confessional record). You got on board with a major, that flies Internationally with a lot of widebodies. Every wonder why CAL pilots were jumping ship in the 90's to come to United, and the other ones have a refusal letter from United?

Every talked to a United Pilot leaving to go to CAL?

Get real. The SLI is a farce.
