I blame bad mgmt at 9E. Phill got the ball rolling and the airline has made one bad decision after another. The well had been poisioned long before Delta sold XJ to 9E. Just look at the cluster going on there now. They have pilots who haven't flown for 6 months and they have CRJ 200/900 pilots who have to go thru a full blown training event just to keep flying the same plane they are already flying. I suppose thats Deltas fault too?
