Don’t know Marty, didn’t vote for him. However, you posting this on an anonymous public forum is idiotic. Go throw your dog a ball or something.

Are you going to mention how much money the committee he chairs has clawed back from the company for the pilots. Like the Airbus ACARs door closure problem? Every time I’ve had a pay issue and Pdr’d it. Marty or one of the members of his committee has responded quickly and filed the pay claim for me. Not my council anymore but a several of committee chairs are on full time drops. But I’m sure you already knew that.

Marty is paid a full time salary like many other full time MEC volunteers. This post is bull.

Why would you need to post misleading information when you could argue with facts?

Interesting reactions to simple facts.

Thank Rick Cameron for that, and why is our pay still screwed up 7+ years into the UPA?

Mike Harrison and the two full-time lawyers who have served this committee sure do know their stuff and Marty is a helluva nice guy. Remember the ESOP stock or the bond distribution debacles?

The real question is why you’d post it?

Are you running or have you served as an elected rep in a camp not aligned with the candidate (who’s a longtime alpa volunteer)?

Your “simple facts” appear to cast criticism on an alpa member who’s done a boatload of work on behalf of UAL pilots. As mentioned, he’s clawed back millions from the company, I’d call those monthly trip drop totals a pretty darn good investment.

If your goal is to promote his candidacy, it’s working! I’d say he’s experienced and qualified. I’d vote for him!

To be clear, those aren't 'trip drops' that's the UAL ALPA MEC policy credit for a full time volunteer. The more I think about this post the more it ****es me off. What does it show? Three years of consecutive MEC work fighting for our pilots. I'm not C12 and am not commenting on the merits of the gentleman as it pertains to LEC elections, but demeaning someone for being a full-time worker is pretty weak.

Agreed, I thinks a fair question, why’d the OP post it?

Because it’s MEC policy, whoever fills that position will presumably receive the same full time credit. It’s a cost baked into union expenses. For FTL to throw that out is absolutely weak sauce.

Marty is a senior A320 Captain and can easily fly more that that! He gave up money to recover $40mil for the pilots! We should all be thanking him!

They may not actually be simple facts. Are you accusing someone of something illegal or unethical? The MEC administers triploss IAW the CBL and is supervised and scrutinized by the S/T. The DoL and DoJ would also have an angle in this, so be careful as to what you say are simple facts.

Have you ever read the Joe Fagone (FED EX) pilot neutral triploss abuse (scandal) report outlining several Continental pilots misuse of the ALPA triploss policy? It's an interesting read. I doubt something like that were going on, otherwise we'd have heard about it a long time ago. On the other hand, if it's personal, it makes perfect sense to me.
