I think that will cover the flybys.

No you won't. I called the flag on that sometime back about the furlough letters, never saw you call me out on it. Your're a keyboard warrior here, but over there you're just a lurker.

again you deflect. Go show your true colors on the union forum. You can copy and past your post from here. Go ahead and tell the 1221 that they are cry babies. Tell them it’s just a letter. Tell them no one got furlough. Grow a pair. Either you put up or shut up.

Seriously though, will you copy/paste the spoiled milk/letter comment on union forum?

I don’t like 5tool. I got one of them letters and I was scared poopless that I would be on the street even though everybody told me it was just a scare tactic. It was real for me and my family. In that moment I realized that I possessed no other skill than flying airplanes. I don’t like 5tool.

It’s a good jet except the WiFi doesn’t work, the FO seat adjust doesn’t work and it’s stuck in the straight upright position on MEL, oh I just finished the walk around, looks like we landed so hard the right side engine fell off, I didn’t put it in the book. Now let me tell you guys about all the delays I had on this last three day trip that I flew for straight time because nobody picks up my Friday-Sunday trips that credit 19.5.

I was sitting in requal last year when the management pilot doing the leadership brief tried to tell us that the furlough letters weren't real. One of the 1221ers replied "Felt pretty real to me". Dead silence for what seemed like the next 30 seconds before the management guy could recover enough to stammer a reply. It was the single greatest mike drop moment I'd ever seen in real life.

Damn right it felt real to those pilots. The company sent those letters out before the holidays just to get the full emotional effect.
The company had no reason ( except for mind games ) to send those out until after the holidays.


Just remember without a heart it is just a machine.

Yeah, well half the pilot group was threatened to be fired as well, but all you guys can talk about is 1200 pilots, I guess that does not fit into the narrative?

Why is that? Either way you have union paying members losing their jobs? How is it different? At the end of day you're out of job. So those folks union dues do not mean as much as someone else?
