Not true.

USAPA ensured the East stayed on LOA 93 another 5 years and made USAirways profitable at our expense.

That's about as helpful as saying ALPA and its supporters extended age 60 for five years at everyone else's expense, but to their own profit. :lol: :lol:
 
I think P&K will take this experience and unmerge another airline if the APA does not take note of the USAPA failure in respresentation.
We would all like to see an unmerger and shed the dead weight which we all know is the west operation.

"John McIlvenna, head of the West pilots ALPA unit, warns that if management bows to pressure from the larger East pilots group and cuts a deal bypassing the arbitrator's ruling, "It will make their labor problems here much, much worse than they already are."
And if USAPA wins the representation election, he says, "It'll be all-out war."
 
Gay also flunked public speaking 101. Sounded like a dumb SOB on the last crew news.


It seems lately the West Class has been afraid to ask direct questions at the Crew News sessions, for fear of direct answers. All that time dancing around the subject, finally even Kirby got tired of Gay’s rambling. Thus a simple "no."

I also heard rumor of an individual pilot trying to get the Company to implement the 190 flying awarded to the West Class in a previous abritration (it was only to be collected after an actual pilot merger.) The answer was once again "no." But that was just a rumor. Anyone want to respond?

US Airways does NOT consider us merged. They are still administering duel contracts with no collective bid, and are not implementing any of the awarded 75 or 190 flying. That is fact. You can be sure Silver will be made aware.

So it is USAPA and US Airways that agree, no ripeness. Based on what I read here the UCC, APA, and AMR are going to bust into Silver's courtroom Chuck Norris style with the poor freed West Class POW’s in tow. Dirty, beaten, and weary, they were forced to vote for the MOU under the duress of comrade Harper. And then all of them yell "ripe!" Fade to credits.

Or maybe not.

Be fair here! The poor "spartan" wasn't properly "armed" with any "Integrity Matters" T-shirts, so as to engage in "many battles" with "valor", for that video session. 😉
 
Shooting ITT News videos in HD just goes to prove the adage that one (in this case two) cannot indeed polish a turd. If the video resolution were lowered to be on par with the writing and acting I think they might actually be watchable.
