Aren't these the same guys who boo-hoo'd so much that they cancelled our much needed SFO 737 base as well as the LAX 756 one? Guess we should just stop running the airline because, in the words of the very sensitive Mr. Heppner, it would have an "emotional" impact on these poor fellows. Do I get any credit for being "emotionally" damaged at the passing of a lousy contract Mr. H?

Can someone pass a hanky please?

The lUal pilots who think they're getting something over on J-Lo don't know who they're fighting.

All former UAL bases should be staffed only with FUAL guys until an SLI is in place. Easy to train the 737 guys that were displaced/furloghed to make a merger work. Anything else is a total screw job that will continue to pay dividends for the rest of all of your careers.

Yep furloughed to immediate 737 Captain sounds about right. Bet the junior UAL guys would have loved to see a furloughee suddenly make 60% more then them. You did say ALL after all. Glad to see such rational thinkers in our ranks.

Can't. We won't be that emotional about it.

Do you all feel it serves your cause best over the long term by fighting amongst yourselves today, or do you feel it might be better to look long term? It seems like the USAir and America West merger would lay out a well proven path to avoid from a pilot's perspective, though I would love to have a squabbling group like this if I were in management and only looking for short term financial stats and management perquisites. Just an observation from the bowels of rich history.

You're missing the point of my post. J-Lo hates pilots with a passion second only to (and in some cases exceeding) Frank's. If a pilot thinks he's gotten something from Jeffy, he's wrong.
