In a strongly-worded memo sent late last week to his fellow 12,500-plus unionized United pilots, Jay Heppner , a United captain and chairman of the United chapter of the Air Line Pilots Association , wrote that "buying back shares of a company's stock signals to investors that executive management cannot think of anything better to do with its excess cash."
