How am I bashing the past? I hold no ill will towards regional pilots. Show me where I've put any blame on the pilots. My coming on here and defending Delta pilots is in no way "moving on and bashing the past". I also flew for a regional were pilots were paid more to fly 50 seaters then most 51+ seat operators.
And explain to me just exactly what I'm am in denial about.
Bankruptcy creates those rates, management closed Comair down, Pinnacle management is the root of all Pinnacle's problems .... I could add more.
Man up and be truthful about Delta pilots role in all of this mess; first with Comair, and now, apparently, with Pinnacle. All your posts show no responsiblity, whatsoever, for the current condition of the regionals. (And before you start the rant about the history of the regionals - I am specifically referring to current devolution of the DCI fleet.) You have accelerated the race to the bottom and exacerbated it's gravity.
And, I, for one, have a long memory. Someday the other show will drop, and it will be Delta pilots turn to take the fall. You can't keep brow-beating DCI pilot rates without it eventually having an effect on your own.
