I still feel that until everyone bands together this won't stop. It didn't stop after Comair, and it won't end with Pinnacle. A no vote from us will only shift planes to other low cost contract carriers.
Ironically, a yes vote will do the exact same thing. How do I know this? Don Bornhorst is calling the shots at DCI and he is using the same playbook as he did with Comair. He was once the Comair president ( I believe we called him ''new guy 2"). He made his career by rising up through the ranks at Comair. Hell, he often told the story of how he grew up right at the end of the runway in CVG. Yet at the end of the day, he was instrumental in the downsizing and closure of Comair in much the same way that Pinnacle now finds itself. All the history you need is embedded in the annals of the ''Latest and Greatest at Comair'' thread.
Both votes will lead to the same conclusion. One will get you there quicker than the other. Don Bornhorst is the harbinger of death. This has all happened before and it will all happen again.
