Economics and congestion makes our current Section 1 weaknesses a dead issue if we just hold the line right here. Then as economics kill off the 76 seaters, we can grow Delta organically...with pilots that we choose. THAT'S the biggest fear of people like Mesabah. Their only hope is to scare major pilots into a belief that merging with RJ carriers is the way to ensure our jobs won't be outsourced...which is obviously incorrect.
