Then OH got on DelTaCo's bad side by having the audacity to demand a decent contract Clearly there is a price to be paid for pretty much going it alone and having the courage to try and raise the bar in the regional industry.

The demise of OH is one of many black days in this industry since 1978 (thanks Jimmy, you @$$-reaming moron). The piloting profession as a whole is certainly not better off for this - not as long as the flying is being (or in this case, already has been) shifted to another carrier who will do it even cheaper on the backs of it's pilots.

Perhaps the senior DelTaCo pilots should apologize for (along with Unotinental) for creating the situation where this scenario was even plausible.
Yea. Still trying to figure out how they justified paying first year fo's less than a fast food worker back then.
