UAL can be a great airline for pilots to fly for, but we need to stick together!

LCAL pilot today, after Tuesday proud to be just one of 12000 plus new United pilots!

One of the BEST POSTS on this subject! And, I agree.

Oh yeah, for the other guys/gals, I have a space suit in the closet. So there, with regards to the big watch, etc.......:)

I'll go on record now saying that I will not *****/complain or gloat with regards to whatever the ISL ends up being. I know that everyone's "expectations" were dramatically changed the day the merger was consummated and that the process looks at the whole group and not the individual. There will be relative "winners" and "losers" when all is said and done.

Hopefully all will be able to look beyond the "me" perspective and embrace the potential going forward.

Anyone else!???

Happy Labor Day to all!

Frats,
Lee

OK, I'll compromise and only hope for the stapling of the 1200+ L-UAL involuntary furloughs to the bottom....like every other seniority integration in history. :D

Don't get all bent out of shape on my comment, it's all in good fun, as neither I nor you have any influence and I do know that Merger Policy has changed to factor in longevity....it just doesn't say how big of a factor it has to be.

Here's to good luck on Tuesday.

Well spoken. I couldn't agree more. I look forward to flying out of EWR and gaining a whole new set of friends and hearing a whole new set of "I remember when" stories.

Cheers,

Joe

Good question. NASA spacesuit or U-2/SR-71 Spacesuit?

I'll take 500' and 420 kts on a VR route over Mach 3+ at FL800 any day.

Well if it makes anyone feel good....I can tell everyone who will probably be the least senior pilot on the property......
