Whats the deal with our MEC going to Denver for a mini vacation/meeting. Why could this not be done in ATL. What a wast of money. This is total B.S. would not surprise me if the XJT side gets the better deal on seniority.

I'm not sure having the meeting in DEN will lead to them getting any kind of advantage. It sure sounds as fishy a hooker on Ridgewood Ave. to me.

Let see how many people get that one...

The next meeting is in Daytona? Buying Riddle for the recruits?

LOL, and one side of the group deserves something like that over the other because of what?

Because the original poster knows nothing of the process.

Actually I don't. If you care about the future of the company you work for ( I couldn't care less to be honest) then you would know that certain things must happen (mergers, consolidation). Bottom line is both pilot groups need one another equally. No one is better than the other, nor deserves something over the other.

And no one side deserves to take a concession more than the other. If anyone has definitive proof of why you feel opposed to that idea, please have at it.

I'm sure someone will come up with the ole "WE BOUGHT YOU" thing. That sounds as foolish as when you call it a "Nucular" weapon.

ERMAGERD NUKES!

Why can't the ERJ people just accept the fact that the ASA side is vastly superior?

For the record all of the ERJ guys I have met have been great to get along with. Just remember, all of this negativity on here seems to be the vocal minority.

We used to go "fishing" in DAB off ridgewood. You can take a dollar bill and attach it to fishing line and sit 50 feet away and watch them chase it down the street. Way better than going to Mai Tais...

Agreed. Almost every single ERJ pilot I've met has been very friendly, with the exception of one particularly irate captain I had the misfortune of riding to with hotel with in PNS.

I rarely hear any trash talk from either side except on APC. I think once we get passed the JCBA and JSL we'll have a fantastic group of pilots.
