The difference between EOS and Delta is huge; DL was a major with worldwide routes. EOS has only 1 route, JFK-STN. EOS needs jumpseats to get their pilots to work, but almost noone uses them to commute. That is what I was referring to when I said this is not a ONE-way street.
Obviously you have never negotiated with management. It does not seem to me that they have been flying long enough for you to have such a strong opinion. Heck they are probably still trying to get through some basic certification issues. If they are slick they are probably just now getting their Cat3 certification, and that would be in the min timeframe. You can bet that other issues besides what some whiney pilots have are in the forefront of their days activities. For the pilots to get managements attention in most startups during the first few years, it comes in small spurts of time that you can actually sit down with them and work on issues. While these issues are big to us, most managers of a startup are just to busy trying to run an airline to focus exclusively on some issues.
While you initially posted some comments with an alturistic tone, it would seem to me that your lack of patience and compassion that comes through in later post belies a certain hidden agenda that you seem to have regarding Eos.
