We, the pilots, are the ones that allow the whipsaw to Perpetuate. This started at mainline by allowing regionals in the first place. If we, the regional pilots, stand as one and say NO to ANY MORE pay cuts in exchange for shiny new jets, than management will have no options. We are only as strong as our weakest link. It only takes one group to cave. Pinnacle caved under a corrupt delta induced bankruptcy scheme. Non of the airlines currently facing consession talks are in bankruptcy negotiations.
