Haha. You certainly have misplaced me in the wrong group on the playground. As long as this lawsuit hangs around, we can not truly move forward as one.

You sir, are spot on. You have clearly pointed their flawed premise. This is why it makes their effort SO needless and more importantly, poisonous.
Sigh.

To your point of neither would have survived alone, I'm not so sure. I believe one would haved survived. While both would be to trying to outrun the BK Bear, all you have to be is a little faster than the other guy. You have to ask the question, who the Bear was going to catch first?

I don't expect it to ever be over for guys like you and dolts lead by Andy Carr. The rest of us are generally in a far better place.

Would you care to explain/define that better place and maybe as a side note tell us what your side brought to the table.

The pilots donating to this fund need to get over it, and this thread is idiotic. This has been beaten to death for way to long. If you can't see the strengths that both airlines brought to this merger you are self absorbed.

A reason for you to get to change your screenname fortnightly in toxic huffs of righteous indignation?

Also Cleveland. You're welcome.

I didn't start the thread but I've never been afraid to call the clowns out for what they are. So Lexie continue to sing kumbaya but the facts speak for themselves. Jay Pierce created this group of victims alone with the devide between the New United pilots.

You only have to look at where CALALPA and it's predecessor union to see where they were and how this victim group was created. Prater and Pierce played the CAL pilots to their personal advantage with Fred, Jeff and the controlling undesirables. UALALPA stopped that but you can't fix the victim class left behind - they'll just have to spend the rest of their careers being victims.

I was speaking only to the highlighted part of your post, a passive-aggressive question which you have repeatedly asked under your many guises.

It would have been a lot easier to answer that highlighted question, but instead, you go into a personal attack mode. My reply was just to explained why this little group was formed and continues to collect donations from line pilots.

As far as the merger - it was never about building a bigger, better airline. It was about extracting as much cash from old United for the shareholders as possible. The gambit continues with OM taking over to act as the savior of what JS created. You have to ask why they gave the pilots a little pay raise and at the same time continue fighting the other employee groups tooth and nail. The unfortunate thing is the pilots fell for it and continue to sing the praises of a man who's done nothing of substance for the company. He just happen to arrive at a time when fuel prices were moving to bottom dollar - Lucky at best.

Wrong. It's definitely over for me and I'm living in the sweet spot. I was shocked that they had raised $100k+ and actually feel sorry for them. Pierce and Brucia sold those guys the literal gift that keeps on giving.
