Most already spent it, or are you referring to 2012 bonus plan?

Awesome! I upgraded in 2007, too. I sure would like to get in on some bids as well.

And if the aip/ta/jcba is voted down that also works for uch since the flying ratio and other key sections of the tpa will no longer be a factor.

It's all straight out of the playbook.

And 757Driver, I took the job so I could vote no on a contract. I would never have gone to CAL otherwise.

And that's all because of CAL ALPA's covert plan to delay the JCBA.

Buddy when it comes to the two pilot groups you are about as rational as Rev Terry Jones.

I don't think there was a covert plan. I just believe that J.P. was in no hurry to get a JCBA. Why? CAL had all the orders in the short term. UAL's orders are for 2015-2016 timeframe. Since we are not doing the list until after the JCBA, why not delay and soak up all the new aircraft vacancies? As long as it's all settled by 2015, CAL guys can get in on the UAL order bids as well. It appeared to me that he was dragged into the J.H. push for release scheme. I'm just saying.

GENTLEMEN! Once again this isn't about UAL pilots vs CAL pilots. This an informational post about whats happening on our side of the fence. Because as far as I am aware Fred nJeff are not keeping you adreast of the way they are treating us. Or have they? I doubt those boys are letting you know that they are abusing the he11 out of the UAL side at the moment have they? Now you know for what its worth.

Please excuse the spelling and grammar I am writing this on my phone.
