Not true...I have worked with and know him from Piedmont days....and have said I always respected him, and thanked him for all his efforts. It does not mean that we have to be in agreement into the future, and I have been critical of how he characterized certain previous incidents. This forum is an embarrassment to the airline pilot profession....both sides!!

Oh man....somebody is going off the deep end.
"we have chosen"? What a laugh....here is a newsflash for you and the other easties who are totally in the dark about your position. You do not get to "chose" once the arbitrator rules. Moreover, the company does not get to chose once they accepted and paid for the Nic, contract fulfilled, to renege now would be an overt collusion with usapa in their DFR failure. Problem for the company is that equals damages back to 2008 or around 1.8 billion owed to the West pilots class.
Now if I were a law firm, and there was a 1.8 billion settlement possible, I would stay in the game and see how things turn out.
This fragmentation, sell off the West fantasy is even more laughable. You really have no clue of the position you are in.
Finally, "what a mistake to throw in with a dirtbag outfit like AWE". You might as well have said..I have no clue as to what has transpired in the last six years. You did not "throw in" with AWE. America West .....bought....AAA. The AWA stockholders got to vote on the merger, did the AAA stockholders take a vote, or did the bankruptcy judge just say...done deal? All the sugar coating thrown down in the last few years does not change the fact that absent the AWA purschase of AAA, you were done. AAA had exactly two choices, be aquired by AWA or liquidate. Obviously, really only one choice.

Jim goes after you east guys because you post stupidity. Your posts are rife with emotion instead of logic and that opens you up to commentary.
We pick you easties apart because you make it easy. And you guys. In turn, go after Jim. He thoughts here provoke your anger because you know the stuff he puts up rings true.
Debate him logically instead of with emotion and you may figure this out.

Then why do you participate in this forum? Do you think we care what you think? STFU and lurk elsewhere if you have no dog in this fight.

There is no west, but there are westies, or people that started their career with AWA. You can doubt it all you want, but while you laugh about LOA 93, you ignore that we had really good contracts leading up to it, and within 3-5 years I will finish my career on the same contract as those westies. A lot of the chief whiners are not on or have just reached TOS, I reached it 13 years ago, have quite a few years of C/O and 76I F/O ahead of them. God willing I will have many more years of service than the average airline pilot. Remember, I have friends that went to work at AWA from '88 to around the early to mid 90's, so I know how crappy the contract was, we've compared notes and some of them were furloughed for a while, I never was.
My post was not to throw stones at what a westies will make in his/her lifetime, it was addressed to hp retiree's claim of my crappy career.

I care more about what Harry thinks than I do about your opinions, so why don't you STFU, at least for a little while.
Actually odds are everyone has something involved. In Harrys case he's a fellow employee. I'm an employee and a shareholder. What is happening with the injunction IS important to us. So's the reputation of the airline. If customers look at the maturity level expressed in this forum they might actually wonder about your maturity and professionalism in the cockpit. The anonymity of the internet isn't necessarily anonymous. I come to this thread for information on the injunction, which is what the topic indicates. Personally I've stopped going to the pilot forum to find out what's going on with your workgroups issues (I do care what happens to my coworkers) because it's become one big sandbox of three year olds throwing poo at each other. You guys need to learn how to be adults. You guys complain about missing the good ol' days occasionally. Back then pilots were consumate professionals above reproach; now you find better manners from lav truck drivers.

So do i...These are the very people who claim that safety is their number one goal....They give our great pilots a bad name and black eye! Some of these guys nees a pshy evaluation! It is sickening!!!!
Go to the pilot labor thread. Look at what your western integrity model Move2CLT just posted. The BoeingBoy western sympathizer has no issue with. Franke hired many sick disciples.

You display many Franke Family traits. A son perhaps? I would surmise the illicit encounter was with someone of ill repute or of the female canine grouping.
