Question

I like most American pilots feel that TWA is asking for way too much. Being only hours from hitting the street is not my definition of a premier airline.
Yes at one time they WERE a good airline and I know the guys have paid their dues, but that doesn't mean an American guy should give up his/her seniority to give them a job. Look what TWA is gaining!!
Nearly a 75% increase in pay, retirement, job security and better work rules.........and they want seniority to (I don't think so). Staple their butts to the bottom of the list....enough is enough. If they don't like it, then hit the streets and find another job. BTW, American is not taking a lot of their aircraft. If the shoe was on the other foot, they would treat us like they did Ozark.
