2015 Pilot Discussion.

[WeAAsles]

Fully agreed on respecting each employee group and their contributions. You seem to be a bit obtuse, however, about your know-it-all friend's complete lack thereof.

Ever wonder why you don't see Claxon, East and the other USAPA members popping off on the F/A, Fleet Service and Mechanic threads and expounding on how wrong they are? We all have friends in those groups and have some basic knowledge of the various issues.

The reason is because we are smart enough to know what we don't know. The people who work under those contracts and deal with those company departments on a daily basis will always have far more insight to offer than us. When I lurk on their threads, I never feel the urge to offer my paper thin knowledge of the subjects at hand. Perhaps there is a lesson here for the World's Greatest Living Expert.

In the end, none of his bs mattered. He was wrong. Lee Seham and Bill Wilder were right. Nic is dead.

You make very reasonable points and it's also why I've never popped in or off on your business. Hopefully we can run across each other and share points of view in the future on subjects that do affect all of us.

Anyway like I said I was just defending a friend who can't come on and defend himself. And trust me I do know all about his shortcomings and strengths in multiple conversations (and arguments) Faults and all I still like the guy so sue me.

Anyway if you ever want stop in to one of the other threads about other workgroups. We really should talk to each other once in awhile.

Hope 2017 is great for you Captain.

Oh you're an angry little fellow aren't you? What's the matter? Is that seat in the cockpit too close to the yoke for you? Not enough air circling up there?

Anyway you're angry little diatribe is irrelevant to me anyway unless you are mentally unstable in which hopefully one day you're captured in an evaluation and rotated out. Otherwise please share which routes you fly so I can make sure never to board your aircraft.

From reading many of your posts over the years I don't think I want you responsible for my personal safety and security getting from point A to point B.

I see your still at it. Sticking up for wrong way N700. In the amt forums your putting licensed mechanics down . I see your over in the pilots thread making rude statement to licensed pilots. Seems like your just a jerk to licensed professional airline pilots and mechanics. Just like N 700 he was wrong about AMFA and the pilots issues. .

Past history. Had nothing to do with the airline I've worked for the last almost 22 years now so.

Just hope all these cobbled together Labor groups that make up the New AA can learn to have the ability to support each other and not walk along with the erroneous assumption that any of us are better than the other?

We may not understand each other's value but it would be nice if we could at least appreciate that we all do have some.

you hypocrite the way you come on the AMT threads spouting your hate for mechanics. You and N700 why don't you talk about what you know and that's fleet service. Until you get your A&P license are pilots license you have no idea about our groups. And your just as rude as 700 . Not just a license the over 30 years I have as a amt. and all the experience these pilots have. your the one to seem to think your better then anyone else. And your ---- don't stink.

Hope 2017 is great for you Captain.

Same to you. Thanks. All the best in '17.

I'm a germaphobic. I don't like to touch dirty humans.

I only pet and play with animals.

Hmmm. Must make for quite a sex life, huh?

I spouted off at individuals such as yourself who want to BASH the Union I belong to, to spread a bunch of BS to try to gain some crapola that hasn't proven anything to anyone ever yet.

Anyway that's dead now so none of that matters. And I think that mostly I was only rude to you and the other Coney? (And 1AA) otherwise you used to have some pretty smart people coming on there trying to explain things to you that you couldn't understand. But you trolls ran them off and now your thread is dead. Oh well.

BTW you're right. This is a pilot thread so go back and bother your own kind.

I'm trying to jump off by wishing all these people well and Happy New Year.

I have a disinfected Chinese Blowup doll that I use for that.

I got pulled over by a cop once cause I was driving with her fully blown and her legs were dangling out the window flapping in the wind.

Very embarrassing moment in my life I'll tell ya.

Looks like Brad Barnett stands to take a massive hit in the Alaska-Virgin merger. Virgin pilots with much less time on property will no doubt be slotted in with more tenured Alaska pilots. Sucks being Brad.

So what's the problem? Brad has always been a huge proponent of the Nicolau list, based on this exact program. Even after leaving us, he believed his full figured wife should be granted her Nic position over East pilots with 17 more years of service to the company.

Well, she didn't get her Nic. What a kick in the head that Brad will now be getting his "Nic."

Boo hoo.

I am unaware on the background to this post other than the "Nic". Could you provide a little more information. I surmise that Barnett was former AWA and left for Alaska. Could you provide more information? Both airlines are ALPA. Do they already have an SLI agreement?

DoH. DoH is the only way for fair integration. DoH with fences. When will ALPA come to its senses? After all possible mergers and lawsuits are done?

 

[dariencc]

Metroyet.

The Alaska-Virgin SLI will take place under whatever iteration of ALPA merger "policy" exists at present. Best guess is that this is not good news for Brad.

 

[dariencc]

Brad and the full figured Karen flew for Metrojet. Both furloughed, neither missed. Especially him. Known as a loud mouth in the crew room, nervous Nellie in the airplane. The clinical term is overcompensation. What a tool.

 

[dariencc]

Both went to Cactus. Their Nic dream didn't work out. Very bitter. Almost as bitter as Lee Fife.

 

[dariencc]

Lee Fife's classmates at Piedmont had the strength of character to stay the course and are enjoying Captains positions at the world's largest airline. Lee panicked and went to AWA. Now he is an extremely angry junior F/O. He should be happy, though, because he finally can be based at home after 12 years of a self induced, grinding CLT to PHX commute.

No on ever accused Lee of being a genius, especially his classmates.

 

[dariencc]

The full figured Karen attended the USAPA roadshow in Phoenix and lost control. She can be seen screaming on the "Can't Take the Heat in the Desert" videos. A lot of guys, Westies included, have watched those videos and thought, "Thank God I'm not married to that."

 

[dariencc]

Brad likes flying for Alaska. They love to hear his stories about how USAPA hammered him. Unfortunately, most of them have friends who are original AA and have told them all about the Westies. They nod at Brad and laugh inside.

 

[dariencc]

Brad misses America West. The commute sucks and he wishes he could fly with his buddy Cap'n Aux. They could bust a move together at the next wild, spontaneous "flash mob" in Phoenix.
