Who was the MEC Chair at DALPA when ASA was running BAE-146's around with over 70 seats?
Who was the MEC Chair at NWALPA when the Mesaba Avro's with 69 seats were grandfathered in for eternity?
You don't have to like LM, but make sure you are placing the blame in the right place...
IIRC, the max "large RJ limits" at DAL and NWA were greater than 255 currently allowed. Is that considered "reducing" DCI limits or not?
