This is why Comair's labor groups can't negotiate themselves out of this mess. There is no what 500 pilots can concede enough to satisfy SkyWest management. SkyWest will get to keep their airplanes, ALPA members will lose their jobs.
These damn outsourcing providers are parasites. Why does our management and ALPA find them "good for Delta" ? Even if you ignore the harm to mainline careers, competing deals have siphoned off the capital value of a 3+ Billion investment in Comair. All of these losses should be accounted for in the cost of outsourcing.
Wonder if Delta will "replace" the 50 seater SkyWest's Captain Gone Bonzo destroyed. (Single piece spar and chemically milled skin ... it is totaled) In associated news George Stephancanopololoponouous has been reporting all day that "COMMERCIAL JETLINERS AREN"T LOCKED" ... "THIS IS A SECURITY THREAT" ... "SOMETHING MUST BE DONE!!!!!" ... thanks Skywest. Thanks a pant load for not screening or monitoring the people you hire to replace Delta pilots.
