We are firing the big guns!

Pick your target any target. I know Slow states these guns only have a 26 mile range, but man they cause a ton of damage.

Fire in the hole!

BTW I would "assume" both!

Nothing like lobbing a VW sized shell at someone to let them know how much you care!

Respectfully, you need to think about this from a jr guys shoes. With the merger we will have so much re-alignment of aircraft I have NO idea where I'll end up. How am I suppose to sell my house right now? It's worth less then what I mortgaged at. I'll be upside down, so how do I get another loan? And what do I do after I uproot my family to move to base only to get displaced to yet another base? Do I yank them out again? Seems awful selfish to yank my wife and daughter away from their relatives just so I can drive to work. They'll never be able to make any friends until I have the seniority to stay in one place.

This profession is no where close to other professions, not even the military. I was an AF Brat, but my father at least got housing allowance. We get nothing.

Respectfully, commuting is not always a choice. We all don't have the seniority to bounce around the system as we please.
Very good post. As a junior guy, I'm right there with you! I'm at two bases and counting!

See you in 2012. Been on strike once, and will do it again. That is THE attitude you need to get our contract back.

Again, RA and boys make the corporate decisions based on what they have planned. They don't need us to cheer lead for them.

They lobby, I fly Jets.
