You have only asked others to engage with the subject matter rather than make stupid snide remarks. The funny thing is that the Administrator thinks those nasty snide remarks are "Insightful" and "Encouraging" and spends much time telling me that I am too controversial. I did not come here to make friends. I came here to share severe problems that we are having with our union leadership. This is a crucial time for my pilot group (CAL) and what these goons do will affect our career and life. This is extremely serious business. We are integrating a 12,000 pilot work force and the stakes are incredibly high. Mr. Pierce and his gang are out smarted, out qualified and out numbered. Their fooling around is making a mockery of our pilots and posing a great threat to our career.
These stupid one line remarks about me are mostly ignored. Their remarks clearly indicate they are intellectually vacant. I have no mercy for stupidity. Apparently the Administrator does. I expect reaction to this thread will have me booted from this site by day's end. Again, thanks for your support. Are you two still slickties, lol? |

Sir, I did not say any of the things that you mentioned. The most junior pilots on the CAL pilot list are former CALEX. .

This is a superb question.
Some CALEX Flow Thru pilots are given two seniority dates. One for date of hire at CAL and the other original hire date for pass privileges, etc. Their date of hire at CAL (Not CALEX) is all that matters for seniority integration. This brings up other issues. There are many former CALEX pilots who think they are entitled to their CALEX hire date for pilot seniority issues. Some think that if it wasn't for CALEX, CAL would have gone out of business. In fact, F/O Corey Franke submitted a report / demand to CAL management stating that his group of pilots (CALEX) are better qualified, better educated and have better flying skills than established CAL pilots. Because of this, he made demands their pilots are placed into immediate positions of authority (I.E., CPO, Training Dept. etc.). He also advocated policy to get rid of many senior pilots as possible. It is not clear if management has officially gone along with the "Franke Report" but almost all of his demands have been met. I will refrain from giving my opinion about these things. You make up your own mind. |

No doubt as a savant you find this merger process to be a very frustrating experience. If only everyone else could see what you and your sidekick see, then everyone would rally behind you in Pied Piper fashion. Unfortunately for you two your attempts at connecting the dots fall short of any logical conclusion. And the more you rant the less supporters you find.

That's not quite right. Some CALEX Flow Thru pilots received l-o-n-g-e-v-i-t-y dates for the purposes of benefits depending upon their particular deal. There is only one date for seniority purposes at the mainline carrier.
Now we're getting somewhere. Anonymous bulletin boards have a tendency to be "slum-dwelling" to begin with. This can't hurt. I will. Thanks. You just do what you said you were going to do in the second quote.;) |

So, do you think the "Franke Report" is correct? He states that his group of pilots (CALEX) are better educated, better qualified and have better flying skills than established CAL pilots. Do you think this is true?

Let's go over this v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y. I don't want you to hurt your head. Take out the CAL pilot seniority list. Start at the bottom and count up 1,000 numbers. The majority of those pilots are former CALEX.

It's difficult to have a conversation with someone when they lack a basic education. You have to fill in too many blanks just to reach a starting point.
