And as far as unity, I find that absurd given that Insler cooked up an LOA that divided the pilot group into thirds as its initial proposal. Man, that was some unity.

I’ll take an abrasive AH of a MC who’s willing to fight the enemy (Management) any day over the place nice so I can have my National job and first class for life “me first” dude who’s crying right now on his Twitter.
His bigoted rants were all over social media within moments of his 1 vote margin win. Yeah he’s gonna be a real treat sitting on the BOD representing us. IYKYK.

I hope you’re right.

Of course oldmako gives two thumbs up to this crazy person that we elected into office. Our mec is following our previous presidency to the T.

crazy loves crazy

apc echo chamber continues

i agree a line pilot should be our rep but this guy is out of touch with reality.

sad news regarding our mec leadership

A gross mischaracterization. And if you don’t believe me go ask UAL HR because the Toddlers already tried running to them. Where do we find such unionists? And I couldn’t be happier with anything that would distance our MC from the other UAL ‘BOD members. In fact the MC should not be our BOD rep. If you don’t get that after Insler’s six years you never will.

Other than that I agree with the rest of your statement.
I was thinking the same thing.

Mind you I do believe Neil is the smartest, most knowledgable and passionate unionists out there, but looks like his past just might become a problem. I'm pretty sure this represents just the tip of the proverbial iceberg of what he has said online.

Guess you can call me nuts, but I don’t have ANY problem with anyone voicing their opinions UNTIL it becomes an outright lie.
Ie..
saying I’m a ****ty pilot- opinion.
saying I did a crappy landing into LHR two days ago, when I was actually in DEN- lie.

what is truly sad (and no real way to fight it..) is that someone actually screenshot pages and sent them to a reporter to publicly slam one of our own. No context of the thread.. just screenshots.

NS and I butted heads on that forum, till I got banned! Lol.
But he seems like a no holds, unionist and THAT is what we need right now.
Will some of the snowflakes get upset- Yupe!
is the company trying to figure out how they are going to deal with this mess- Yupe!
do we have a chance to take back our Union and get an ILC23- YUPE!

till then, all we can do is-
Fly Safe, Fly Professionally and
Fly the Contract!
always

Not just anyone. It was CH the disgraced and recalled FO rep in Denver. So now 2 of the 3 recalled have gone off the deep end and become anti union shills. The high altitude or legalized weed getting to some? Jim B went to management one day after resigning and broke his signed letter of 2 years between union and management positions and now CH pulling an Andy 2.0 and handing over stuff to the press. Supposedly this stuff was previously handed over to HR and it was ok with them.

I’ve said it a few times lately but it’s just proven more true all the time. Is it any wonder why we don’t have more people stepping up to the plate for ALPA work? This place is rapidly becoming a High School Musical.
