I thought you guys had some kind of grievance or something in regard to the parking of the 767-200's. What happened with that?

Imho, uch is lobbying a yes (50% plus one) vote for the aip/ta/jcba by using fear, uncertainty, and doubt. It's not a coincidence that we find ourselves backed up against the nasty tpa expiration sections on the anticipated timeline for membership ratification.

And if the aip/ta/jcba is voted down that also works for uch since the flying ratio and other key sections of the tpa will no longer be a factor.

It's all straight out of the playbook.

it's obvious....

Uch plan a: Scare lual pilots into yes vote over fear of tpa expirations.
Uch plan b: Take advantage of expired tpa sections and further shrink lual.

What 76 flying has been lost, I think that 2 767-200's were retired (which supposedly is why the CAL pilots got a bonus), the rest is still there, it has just been moved to Newark.

And 757Driver, I took the job so I could vote no on a contract. I would never have gone to CAL otherwise.

Not really an accurate statement. Over 200 new captain positions and guys flooding to new bases to elimiate commutes. There are many very happy guys right now.

And that's all because of CAL ALPA's covert plan to delay the JCBA. :rolleyes:

Buddy when it comes to the two pilot groups you are about as rational as Rev Terry Jones.
