RYRFORME... A bud I used to fly 727s with whilst he was on furlough from UAL was at one of the meetings sponsored by FR, and yes we all know the difference between Ryan International, an airline that was providing lift for Futura out of DUB, and Ryanair the Low Cost Carrier of Europe.

It was of his opinion based on an exit pole that due to vast airline cultural differences between FR and UAL, there won't be many takers from UAL. But he also said the the UAL MEC has to carry a supply of tissues to wipe the brown spots from their noses. With that being said there appears to be no great love loss between the majority of the pilot group and ALPA.
