I'm going to mark this post. If there is a meeting then officially all your point of views to date regarding these issues will have been wrong.

There's never been any lockout. Several here have said that everyone was waiting for the Frontier deal to close to start integration talks. It's what the RLA states. I replied to you specifically urging patience and that everyone wants to work together. Instead you wanted arbitration and wanted it now. Since the arbitration your hate here has increased 10 times over. Sorry it didn't go the way you wanted.

TPG and BB might be in bed who knows. I don't and I know you don't. What's that have to do with the pilots? The first thing the MEC did was get in communications with the Midwest MEC. Both of the, released statements verifying it(the very next day). There were RAH pilots at your information picket in support. There were several, including myself, here saying the last thing they wanted were 190s on property and didn't want to see midwest pilots out of jobs. So where are you getting this info from? Lately your posts are just wild swings at the air. Your credibility is drowning. Give it a rest with the relentless bashing and made up facts of yours. Obviously you can't prove anything you say. If you could then the arbitrator would have had something to go on.

1. I never said we were on strike.
2. We are being furloughed because your EXCO will not schedule integration talks until after Oct 1. Delta/Northwest and Southwest/Frontier both worked on integration before the merger/purchase.

Why can't Republic, Midwest, Frontier .. have merger talks before the closing on Oct 1?

My answer, in a vacuum of information from your EXCO, and it is a logical reason...

So Republic pilots can be positioned in all the Midwest jobs or what I call a

lock-out the Midwest pilots

I agree with you on this MD80. It is BS that they couldn't have drafted an LOA that let you guys fly the new 190s coming onto property prior to the full integration. I have asked the integration committee and believe me when I say that I feel like I get the same stupid answer to my same question everytime. "Our counsel has advised us that its in our best interest to wait until everyone is present to start integration talks." Maybe its above my pay grade and I just don't get it.

Also I sent you a private message and you never responded.

Where are you getting this? Prime example of misinformation and rectal oratorio. As for FAPA pilots being scabs and undermining YX guys, well, I doubt the YX guys would do as they are insisting F9 and RAH pilots do if the roles were reversed. Unprofessional, to say the least. I understand the frustration, but...seriously?

Where have I said a word about what F9 guys should do? I've purposely have stayed out of anything to do with F9. Both BB and FAPA has expressed their desire to keep the F9 and RAH seniority lists separate. Is it a coincidence that they both believe the same thing and they don't have any kind of agreement?

You can desire all you want but the fact remains that it is a blatant violation of the RAH contract. F9 will be forced to integrate whether they want to or not and hopefully BB and FAPA won't drag this out any longer than it already has.

No violation if BB gets his buddies at TPG and Wexford to split 50%. At 50% ownership there is no violation and he still has control. Believe me if BB wants them separate they will be separate. He may be just using it as negotiating capital. You may think your scope clause is bulletproof but there is and never will be such a thing.

I guess I don't understand where you got the idea that FAPA (aka, F9) wants to keep the seniority lists separate? I'm an F9 guy, and I believe that it's a foregone conclusion that the seniority lists will be integrated, per the RAH contract. As much as it might sting to take a bit of a possible seniority cut due to some super-senior pilots at RAH, we'll take our lumps. Saying that "FAPA and BB have an agreement to not integrate seniority lists" is inaccurate and misleading. BB has expressed his desire to stay away from integrating, but I believe (just my opinion) that FAPA has actually expressed desires to integrate in order to avoid any sort of whipsaw between the pilot groups. Also, "expressing desire" and "having an agreement" are two completely separate things.

It won't be the RAH guys with super seniority. The Midex guys have both RAH and F9 beaten by a large number. Better hope you can screw them some more.
