I wonder how happy Delta or United would be with contracts getting cancelled short notice to staff American flying?
I wonder how happy United is about the crap Q-400 operation Republic is running while trying to staff competing American flying?
Where will Republic find 450 pilots to do this flying (assuming no attrition)?
