Yes, there was a good sized group that jumped over as a seniority grab when they started it up. While I won't name names on an internet forum, they're rather well known.
Personally, I have much less of an issue with a comair guy going over there now than I do with the original bunch or the SJS kiddies chasing the "quick upgrade".
Regardless of what the TSA union did or didn't do correctly at the time G7 was formed, had we pilots (in general) had enough solidarity to NOT GO WORK THERE, they would have had no choice but to negotiate a fair contract. The people who took jobs there and prevented that from happening are the ones I have issue with.
