You forgot your sarcasm emoji. I guarantee you that if he successfully negotiates us a contract he’ll unify this pilot group. This pilot group needed a 180 from the last MC and he’s definitely that. I’ll trust in the judgement of the majority of the MEC who voted him in until he proves them wrong.

One huge plus is that he’s currently a line pilot. Not another full time ALPA guy living on his 94.5. He sits reserve as well so I’m guessing he knows first hand how screwed up the contract is. I was in ORD back when he was a rep, he did the wishes of his council and fought tooth and nail for them. You may not like his delivery or even what he says but he’s someone who’ll stand up to management instead of worrying about ALPA National or first class for life.

This. The TI stink is finally starting to fade off of UAL-ALPA.

let’s be real here dude
41000 pilots? Please don’t drink and post. It’s making you look bad bud. How about this. Let him do his job. Support him until he proves he’s not capable then call for his head. I will be the first to admit I was wrong about TI. I believed the hype until he showed he was all about Todd not the pilots. Give Neil the same respect. He’s our MC now. You don’t like it? So what. You better be cheering for him to succeed in getting us all an industry leading contract instead of whining that he’s mean. If he doesn’t deliver, I’ll join you in calling for his head.
