The UAL committee is trying to get the best result for the UAL guys.:eek: I want them to do that too. It's their job. Why do people not get this. It's a bunch of LAWYERS arguing their cases. Lawyers lie, cheat, steal, and do whatever they need to do to prove their case. They are like criminals themselves. No offense to the criminals out there.

In all seriousness, let the committee's do their work. Quit reading the transcripts all day. It will drive you crazy. The list will be somewhere in the middle of the two proposals. Always is. That's why it goes to arbitration.

Cheers Stoops. I look forward to flying with you all in a few months when I get back. Hopefully, we can help make this airline into one of the best in the world. Though we're going to need help from management. :rolleyes:

You are correct, Staller! I did not make any of those as I was a Navigator for a short 6 years, and looking back on it I would not change a thing. The shorter commitment and the timing of my exit paved the way for me to be here, not to mention the wife and kids and all the great friends along the way.

If you can't get over the fact that I don't support the mission (as millions of other Americans do not), you are the one with the problem.

BTW, I've heard all the Navigator jokes, unless you have a new one. I'll even let you tell them while you're pulling my gear...

First, there is no way I would pull gear for you or any cal guy and there is no way you'll ever be senior enough to pull gear for me. That's a good thing in case you don't understand.

You should be proud of being a navigator. Look at you now - a front row seat. I do have one correction for your little dig highlited above -

Couple of questions for you:

Who do you fly for?
What plane do you fly and what is your seniority on it?
Where are you based?

You throw a lot of comments out, yet hide behind the keyboard in anoniminity.........hard to take anything you say seriously.

That's what I thought. You don't want anyone to know you're not on either seniority list so you can keep throwing the snide remarks under your cloak of anoniminity. Pretty sad staller. I figured you'd be man enough to back up your posts.......I figured wrong. :eek:
