Horton in his letter said the airline would continue to pursue a consensual deal with pilots.
And, in what one might consider a “no hard feelings” comment, Horton expressed a hope that relations inside the airline improve.
While “I believe there is a growing sense of confidence in what the new American will be,” Horton wrote, “I also understand that there are many different views and feelings about the past, and I hope that over the coming weeks, months and years, we can forge a new basis for mutual respect and trust, and a new beginning.”
That's easy to say when it ain't your a$$ being violated
You know his leaving is all part of the script wriiten by the BK consultants. The bad guy will leave (Horton) and a more likeable replacement will arrive to lead whoever is left to the "New American".I don't think Horton understands that he has to leave!
AArogance at it's best.
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Today Judge Lane made his decision to place AA's restructuring Final Last Best Offer as our Current Bargaining agreement. Since November 2011, we have all been living and working under some very stressful conditions. Today will be the Date of Signing. Any raises will be effective as of September 12, 2012.
I want to take this time to thank all of you who have been staying informed and passing on accurate information throughout our membership.
American Airlines had published incorrect numbers related to the up and coming RIF. We are working to get these back to what was agreed to in negotiations that lead up to the LBFO.
