need to get a phone with real GPS then, my sprint instinct gives to the meter turn by turn directions!

Anyone else here actually enjoying the ALPA posts that have joined our forum? I truly find them entertaining to read.

"Enjoying" is one way to put it.

Lonnie Quinn on CBS 2 News says we are going to have a beautiful weekend. That caught my attention, so I watched. Apparently beautiful means a high of 45 and a low of 29 :confused:

Entertaining, but in poor taste.

it is fun to watch people make an a$$ of themselves though. :p

It could even be a non-union-affiliated person making such posts just to generate ire amongst Flyertalkers.

The reference to the Do and the picture and video annoyed me. I have showed my friends and colleagues the pictures I have taken from the DO and they thought it was amazing that CAL hosted such an event. Most of my co-workers and friends now say that will become customers of Continental just from the pictures and stories from the DO that I have shown them and told them about. Some said to me “Know I know why you mostly fly Continental, they are good to you” and they are. The DO event was just as beneficial for CO as it was for us. They listed to out questions and concerns, they gave us reasonable explanations and talked about new products and policies that they want to implement. They didn’t have to do any of that, but they did because I believe they are a company that does care.


All you can do is :rolleyes:

J.____ is always a good start! :D

I honestly hope he joins us and shares his perspective -- it would be far more interesting (and accurate) to have a real time discussion without the union hot-heads regurgitating their "prose" here.

It'd also look good for ALPA.

Oh almost forgot: pension accounting rules :rolleyes:

Sure I'd welcome him here, but some of the pilots copying and pasting over and over gets really old, at least this time CCP added a new post of his own, but still making it look like someone he is not with the pastes.

Until this 'ALPA' poster comes forward and admits who they are, and backs up their statements... I feel it needs to be said:

Please don't feed the troll.

And I'll be happy to apologize if necessary.

Oh, and yes, my first Box post.

Hello, my name is unkfrank, and I was a Box lurker...

What took you so long?;) Welcome!

There's a good vide outside when I just did a food run. Everyone was cheerful and chatty when I got my lottery ticket. The restaurants had nice crowds for a change and the liquor store parking lot was almost full.
