Don't try to single Delta out, because you can't. Check out UAL's latest scope proposal. It's almost identical to DAL.

And where am I'm cheering for loss of jobs? I'm simply stating facts that pilot jobs are being shifted back to mainline. And many of the smaller communities you mention only have service because the airports are part of EAS routes. Service will not stop to those communities. It just won't be on Delta. And if it does, gripe to the government. They control it. And Delta still uses EMB120's operated by Skywest and SF340's operated by Silver Airways.

I have not forgot where I came from, or how I got to where I am. But I'm tired of seeing people point fingers at Delta pilots for Pinnacle's problems. Pinnacle is in the situation they are because of one reason, and that's Pinnacle management.
