The unions seem to have had a strangle hold
at United and that includes the pilots' union.

Management was top heavy with highly paid
pilots, who really had no management training,
and who received amazing perks for keeping
current in their flying and overrides for
their managerial duties.

There were a few managers who flew during
a strike and these were regarded as "scabs"
and hated by the union types.

Many of the upper crust executives
were of the bean counter mentality,
but would not stand up and handle the unions.

I observed this over a ten year period
from 1990 to 2000.

Doesn't surprise me one bit to see
where UAL landed.
