SWAPA is killing the 'culture'.

Based on the schedule announced yesterday, the only ATN CA's who will remain CA's are the ~215 who are left on the 717 when the last batch transitions in 2015.

Anyone can bid a CA slot after 1/1/2015, but based on the current fleet plan, retirements and zero growth, only about 300 ATN pilots could hold 737 CA.

SWA sent 2 assistant Chief Pilots to ATL to talk to the ATN guys in recurrent and in the crew room about the deal. I give them credit for doing that.

Contrast that move with the letter from Steve Chase and you can clearly see who is responsible for destroying the SWA culture.
