And so the last time you lost an airframe to a regional was what? 2008 when Freedom Airlines took delivery of the CRJ-900s? And before that the CRJ-700 and EMB-170 in 2004? And before that the CRJ-200 in 1996? So has your career been ruined since 1996? Or 2004? Or 2008? Would you rather have been pushing around a CRJ since then? I don't see much tangible evidence in your remarks that your career has been ruined. Only that business decisions outside of your control were made.
Most of what I've heard is that the very most senior are too good for the likes of an RJ - which is why they were farmed out to the lowest bidder.
Would you have bid JFK Dash-8 CA in 2006 for $48/hr to prevent your career from being ruined?
