The growth cal is currently going through is no more than what UAL brought to the merger. Jeff and company had better work rules with the cal guys and Pierce in their hip pocket or the flying could have gone the other way. All the 737 you are taking delivery of are for replacement not planned growth. Sorry, get the facts right.
Go back and look at what cal was - RJ outfit with RJ contract with no real respect except for CNBC because they were giving their families free tickets.

I know you had a point to make - would you edit and repost please.
The growth ual is currently going through is no more than what CAL brought to the merger. Glen and company had better work rules with the ual guys and Heppner in their hip pocket... Sorry, get the facts right. Go back and look at what ual was - Old tired widebody domestic outfit with RJ contract with no real respect ... Gate swings both ways buddy... |

The CAL/sCAL fleet is virtually identical in size in 2005, 2008, 2010, and 2013 (these are the only dates I bothered to look up) and is actually smaller today than in 2008. |

Jeffie was in big trouble without it--he wouldn't have made $14m that year. What else would a guy say with that kind of cash on the line? No thanks? It's not like he was under oath; he was pushing his agenda. Wall Street, however, was speaking with the clear voice of the marketplace--18% interest loans to UAL.
Not that it matters. |

Sled, I have no idea why that date is printed on every page (nor do I really care). Bid 12-03 would have come out in March, 2011. That's how CAL bids have historically worked. Perhaps there is some sort of error. I have no idea.
I am certain that both Merger Committee's have the correct data and are working day and night to put forth their best arguments. The best thing for you to do right now is to find a hobby and wait until August or September. Your perspective is neither interesting nor relevant. If it makes you feel any better, however, I will listen sincerely and compassionately to your perspective when you fly as my FO after the integration. :eek: SLedster |

Tried to find in one of your older post but didn't you say that cal would have likely liquated without the money brought to the merger by UAL.
