Never mind. CS isn't bad. RT needs to not be a rep.

Ipads and a United flow through are really close according to Uncle E's visit during recurrent.

Yes it's official! The flow through to United is very close to being finalized. This is how it's supposed to work.

1 year seat lock at each company, so FO at Great Lakes will be eligible to upgrade to CA after 1 year of holding FO at Great Lakes then after a 1 year seat lock as CA at Great Lakes the pilot can flow to next airline as an FO and will seat locked for 1 year and so on, and so on, and so on...
Great Lakes flows to Silver
Silver flows to CommutAir
CommuteAir flows to Shiny Jet Operator in United System
Shiny Jet Operator in United System flows to United!

I'm really liking this flow stuff, maybe Delta and US Airways will join in on the fun. With the pilot shortage upon us I don't see any other way to make it to the majors!

That flow plan sounds like a regional run around.

As much as I would love a flow, I think that we are pretty much looking at a 1 in 100 chance of EVER seeing a united flow. I would love to be told "I told ya so" but there are several united regionals that have not ****ed them off. I think having something worked out with another carrier is possible but still unlikely.

Laughing in the face of a FO who was speaking to another pilot about possibly being displaced on the staffing bid. Yeah, not a great thing to hear from a rep.

The list goes on, but I really don't have to justify my reasons.

I like him as a person, and he's a good pilot, but his attitude towards many pilots isn't conducive to being a union rep.

So did anyone notice the addition of several airports in revision packet 16? Athens, Augusta, Birmingham, Columbus, Huntsville, Montgomery, and Savannah. Is it just my imagination or are these all former routes dropped by RJ operators? Could these possibly be the destinations that Silver plans on if they can ever find pilots? Or, "Chris stop starting bull $@!t rumors!"
