For now. But you're openly out the door. Have some class and stop this incessant crusade against HA ALPA. You're gone.

FYI your posts add no value to the forums.

They probably are using pro bono negotiators as well.

Can’t believe the hypocrisy!

Class? You don't know how fed up the HA pilots are with this MEC, so may I suggest you stay out of our house?

I'm just scratching my head at what you think you're trying to accomplish, other than blow up your CJO at United. No minds are being changed here. And 90% can't even follow what you're discussing because it's all insider stuff.

But you want to go out guns blazing on your way to being a probationary pilot again.. that's your call.

I want to help you with your MEC campaign.

Personally I'm glad there are pilots that do get involved beyond just flying their trips.
Just saying, you brought up self inteest. Taking a position to select check pilots, and then immediately applying makes me question your motives. This isn't about the inner workings of the airline, it's about pay and schedule.

Also, having a background in union work, and taking a union position as a resume builder for your management goals isn't the same.

Using the union as a stepping stone blurs the lines and priorities of the people we depend on. Dangerous if you ask me.

Blurred lines and conflicts of interest are the threat. When an MEC member is more interested in being invited over to the CEO's cookout than representing the pilots in hard-fought contract negotiations, then that is a failure of that individual.

But if this merger goes through, all of that brown-nosing will be for nothing.

Just forwarded your message to my recommendation at TK, and his reply was, "Let him know we will return the favor when they are up for bid". I won't be guns blazing at UA because their MEC has integrity.

I Left the AS thread because I was asked to, will you please leave the HA thread?

Ask how many full time ALPA pilots United has. Let me guess, all of them are strictly VOLUNTEER!
