Management Change
It has been reported that FRED will retire on APR 30 of this year. May he get the "ONE FINGER SALUTE" he deserves.
PIERCE is ready for FREDDY's job. He's whipped ALPA into shape and got his boys towing the line. Let's not let him go any farther up the chain to further his career at the expense of working pilots and on the backs of the combined pilot groups. Enough is enough with this guy. For that matter it's time for the combined groups to be JAY-less. |
I would like to take this opportunity to inform you that I will be retiring effective April 30. I have been involved in the airlines since starting at TWA in 1975. I had the good fortune of helping to start Air Berlin and People Express, as well as being at Continental to assist it going from “worst to first.” However, even with all those great experiences, the past three years at United have been the best. I want to thank all of you for the great job you do every day. I know that I am retiring from the best airline, with the best pilots in the world. Please value what you have built here and always fly safe.
Howard Attarian will be taking over Flight Operations after I retire. As you know, he has been Vice President Flight Operations at United since 2008 and will do a great job leading the division. Please join me in congratulating Howard and supporting him in his new role. FYI: the CALMEC signed statements not to take any management job. I don't know anything about Attarian. |
Attarian was Duane Weorth's right hand man at NW and ALPA.

In fact, when Attarian first started here at LUAL, he was communicating as Capt Attarian. Minor point, but we told him you could not call yourself that becasue you are not a pilot here at UAL...

What does JP have to do with VP flight ops job?
Nothing and that's a good thing. The Jay's have done all the good/bad that they can do. It's time we thank them and send them packing. There's enough young blood ready and willing to do the job. |
