Like others in our LEC/MEC Chris has been involved as a Rep for way too many years. He was a part of our merger contract as the JFK LEC S/T 10 plus years ago and has been the 005 FO Rep for at least the last 6 years I believe. We need a lot of new blood, way to
much Stockholm Syndrome with some Reps and numerous key MEC committee members.

just curious. What’s his seniority, what equipment is he on, is he a line holder or reserve, and what type of ca could he hold, and most important, how many years does he have left?
Surely he represents the 26 year old reserve nb fo newlywed or new hire with a pregnant wife as a commuter in ewr with absolute understanding of what their life is like.

We have a chance to reset the broken model of negotiations, which drag on for years past amendable dates, usually ending up under the auspices of the NMB, and leaving years of un-unrealized value for the pilots in the company coffers. If we can achieve a two-year contract cycle and use the power of the LOA to capture value in the midterm, we can get more contract value in OUR pockets, not management’s.
How and why would they suddenly be willing or able to change their spots and become a cunning and aggressive adversary in bargaining against United management?
If your pilot group is going to "reset the broken model of negotiations," something radically different would have to be done, Does this guy even have a clue what that something might look like? I don't think so. And, if he does, why wasn't it done in the last four years? For example, this guy obviously thinks that filing for mediation is a bad thing, which in itself is a form of wishful thinking and a denial of reality because mediation must be gone through to pose a credible threat of legal self help. But, for argument's sake, let's humor him and suppose that he is correct: what did he do to attempt capitalize on an equivalent or more powerful form of leverage for you guys?
Y'all need to recall these guys. All of them. People like this idiocrat harm all of our careers and the well-being of all of our families.
