You'll still be waiting on the ramp for a ground crew to park you, for 10 minutes, with an engine running...

I'm just glad we get paid by the minute.

Why in the hell should we "meet with them" in the first place! It's OUR scope, our contract, not thiers!!!

My personal best was getting an RTA as we were taxiing to the gate in ATL...

AC, does anyone know what Atilla cost per year? If its only 10% of what FPS2 cost in inefficiencies...not good.

I can guess based upon what I heard, but it really does not matter. We renewed it and get to experience it in all of our bases now.

Of course I make every attempt to speed up if it asks me to!

I've heard that it was renewed despite desires to get rid of it.

Someone's desk justification on horribly false "savings" numbers.
