Glad you recognize that everything changes in a merger. The money brought in kept us from Chp 7 and them from Chp 11. No, the US pilots should not have been kept from the 767s forever, but a time.

Don't forget. As cited by USAPA in our filings. The CAL F/As overrode an arbitrated decision and placed Frontier F/As (on the street, out of business) on their list DOH. Members of the union sued and lost. DOH was allowed and protected by the courts, even extending to a group that was on the street. But this is nothing new, simply look back decades to what happened with the Mohawk pilots.
You can be sure one of Judge Silver's clerks read that decision of law.

Did UA merge with AWA? If not, I guess they weren't worth it. AWA didn't have the money to benefit from US shutting down, or they would have let it. Just because the government gave you Dad a second chance doesn't mean the rest of us should pay for it.

Ask the West guys.
What does my Dad getting a second chance have to do with anything?
I was against those guys getting preferiential hiring.
It's the only thing that can help me reconcile with your logic.
Speaking of preferential hiring, how did you get a chance to get hired with US Airways.
Your dad was a scumbag. He stapled Empire pilots to the very bottom of the Piedmont list. He used his influence to get out before the retirement went to the PBGC and got you the job at US Airways. He was the problem with pilot profession, personal greed. Glad he is gone, Chip Munn and your daddy had a lot in common. Some woman are attracted to such pigs and marry them and have children.

The apple fell right next to the tree. You have to live with this, not good.
Okay Clax, that is out of line.
I didn't know Jake's Dad, but know several that did and have never heard a bad word about him.
TJ and I disagree about somethings and had a small issue while flying together, but have come to terms with it and will not claim that he is anything but a good pilot and good employee.
We all disagree sometimes, and basically all want to be right.
We all know how you got your job also, that is why it bugs you. Deal with it.
No Clax, I call it like I see it. You've seen me take TJ to task. That was below the belt.
