Very interesting times indeed. It seems that this is a hybrid of amending their current agreement and opening early their next agreement.
I hope the flight attendants are watching and resolve their own internal conflicts so they can play ball as well.
It also lends some credence to the suggestion that this new management is trying a different tact than we've seen before. This is unprecedented in the 20+ years I've been here.

You spend a lot of time on this forum selling the company's positions. When you say 20 years, which side of the fence are you talking. Most understand you are anti-ALPA but what is your purpose of trying to get the pilots to sell out. BTW, the Mechanics and Flight Attendants are working toward their own contracts and probable don't appreciate you getting involved by shilling for the company.

Despite what Staller says, I'm not for or against anything yet other than being glad that we are having a dialogue. I've always been a fan of taking advantage of opportunities when they arise. Is this an opportunity, or the company's attempt to swindle us yet again? No way to know yet unless you're at the negotiating table. I certainly understand the pessimistic views. I've lived through the same hell as everyone else. I tend to be a little bit more opportunistic than most. Then again, I closed on a house on August 2011, so clearly I'm not a smart investor

You still didn't come back with motives. I've not seen your expression of support on the other forums. Is it possible you don't qualify.
I see you're pulling the Staller card to rally support of the other company shills and why the anger toward ALPA?

If anything, today's announcement has soured me on any contract extension deal. I would prefer to just open Section 6 now if that's what's being offered to the IAM.

Hey Swindells - you're irrelevant. Go play patty cake with Kravit and the rest of your Sesame Street crew on ualforums.
