East Pilots

This is so unbelievably inappropriate. Clearly from some West a**hole who does not have the first clue about how the real airline world works. Grow up -- you honestly believe it is fair and equitable to place men hired in 1988 BELOW a twenty something year old who should probably be working at Mesa anyway? Nice. Karma will bite you, and I cannot wait to hear your screams.

What one thinks is personally "fair and equitable" for themselves is irrelevant. The fact of the matter is The East Pilots agreed to binding arbitration and now have an award they will have to live with for the rest of their lives. Case closed.

All you two are going to do is cause me to pummel the first Westie I see, maybe it will be you. Watch out on the crew van.

Mods to the cornfield with him?

This is the same old song and dance from you. You are looking at the literial sense of the issue. You probably don't have the intellect to do differently. So, Binding or No Binding is irrelivant if you aren't talking fairly. As I asked you prior...Do you think the final decision was fair? You answered my question with a question...

You know it's not fair. You are hidding behind that fact because you now probably have some of the 1500 numbers plastered behind you. It's obvious to everyone you are a lame a$$ pilot.

I feel sorry for you...

Go ahead and gloat...

You seem to have that action down pat...

Just my opinion...

I’ll skip the legal/financial ease and put this into simple terms even a caveman can understand. In May 2005 the old POS US Airways was a fat cow dying of mad cow disease and everyone in the industry and Wall Street were anxiously awaiting for the carcass to be carved up into yummy little steak morsels. The chum was in the water and the airlines, like sharks circling above the carcass, were measuring up what bite to take first. AWA (aka Parker et al) realized the potential significant market gain, sorry, I mean AWA realized they could eat the whole cow at a fraction of the cost. The other sharks can get downright nasty and leave scars if you are not careful so no reason to fight them. So, they bought the cow to prevent from losing all that meat to the other vicious predatory sharks. Unfortunately, as it turns out, AWA did not know the meat was infected with mad cow and now we are going to need to purge ourselves of the disease somehow. You can help expedite that process by continuing on your path of self-destruction.

Seriously, I really hope you guys do all of the things I am reading because now I really do want your seat and that is the quickest way for me to get it. Eventually, the East operation will be a shell of its former self, and the West operation will have acquired all of that meat for pennies on the dollar. I love this business!

Lets face it guys, you are here today because of AWA so quit your F^&*ng whining and be thankful you have a job, or just leave and put yourself out of misery.

Ma'am,

a few points:

(i) Karma already did bite someone. I don't see any gloating on the West side but it is becoming uncomfortable when a United or Southwest pilot asks about the award and then they break into wide smiles.

(ii) Thursday was the real world. Now we are in the surreal with talk of evading the law, decertification, etc.

(iii) The arbitrator is a man held in high esteem in his profession. The East and West selected him. He was doing arbitrations when you were still playing hopscotch. Furthermore, he had the assistance of two ALPA pilots. The East selected a CAL pilot and what's interesting is that other than the passive comment about the already recalled furloughees, even he agreed with the award.

Hey auto mechanic,

You don't have to fly with HP captains, but you will be my beeatch one day. Just shut up and I'll let you jerk my gear all day long.

Threaten to "pummel" a westie over an arbitrators award? You are a big man for threatening someone behind your keyboard old man - I am all shook-up.

Prick!

All you two are going to do is cause me to pummel the first Westie I see, maybe it will be you. Watch out on the crew van.

Go ahead and gloat...

You seem to have that action down pat...

Gloat? I call it defending Pilots a group of Pilots(West) that put it all on the line against a group of Pilots(East) that put it all on the line and can't live with the results of their actions.

You go ahead and whine all you like you definitely have that down pat.

So are these the skills and morals you teach your children? You tell them don't let anything stand in the way of what you want or think you deserve..no matter that they gave their word and commitment.
