Reality Check
Direction , Unity and Co-operation is what’s needed from the pilots in order to achieve your goals over the coming months.
The company have clearly shown that they will not negotiate under present circumstances , the majority of you know this all to well. Don’t let the anger and “Hold Face” stubbornness of the AOA jeopardise the future for the majority of the pilots.
The ban is not working , it has been implemented at the worst possible time in aviation history i.e.: Post 9/11 Attacks. The abundance of qualified workers will continue to join regardless of the demands of the AOA.
Change tactics , get a grip move forward and get back to the negotiation table. For now put the 49’ers a side for a few weeks , concentrate on getting the best possible outcome for the people who are still happy to continue their career’s with Cathay , this is the most important task at hand.
Once you have secured contracts and conditions that everyone is happy with and have established a line of communication with management , then work towards assisting the 49’ers for reinstatement.
