Today's mgmt. maneuver
And the maneuvers begin, a media "update" with no meaningful change from previous content......really?
United puts final touches on major Boeing 737 order: sources: Thomson Reuters Business News - MSN Money
So if you read the story, here is the takeaway
- deal is not final
- deal could be concluded in the next few weeks (summer)
- number of planes not final
This story, without substance and hinting at order jeopardy, is fed to the media 2 days
after the United Negotiations website characterizes the pilot request for release as rhetoric.
Thanks Jeff, looking forward to the next maneuver.

Wow. How did you make that story all about us???
They are negotiating for new planes. That's all.
Management may try to dangle a carrot, just ignore it. They aren't going to change their business plan for us.
But as usual, pilots think its all about us, get all worked up and end up MAKING STUPID DECISIONS!!!!!
Not everything is about the pilots, shocking I know.
Airline pilot central needs a new name......Drama Queen Central

It wouldn't need a new name if it had far more adults and fewer children participating.
When one factors in that most comments far exceed the guidelines in the ALPA code-of-ethics, it becomes "entertaining unprofessionalism" at best, damaging to the professional image and embarrassing at it's worst.
