Executive management doesn't give two sh1ts about your personal slow down. Do you not have any sense of morality or professionalism? With an attitude like this, you deserve to stay at a regional. You are a child.



You are never going to get something that is "industry leading." Do you live in a cave or just prefer to ignore the environment in which you operate? Republic is going to get a 9E type contract. Look at the industry around you; not the fantasy one you have created in you head.

Your labor group has not given your management any motivation to return to the bargaining table or take your labor group seriously. Your airline obviously still operates within the acceptable parameters of the agreements with all your major airline customers that none of these contracts have attempted to be cancelled by said customers. Your on time performance is obviously still acceptable to the Department of Transportation because your airline is not having massive fines levied against it for terrible operational performance. My point is, your entire labor group has the tools available to force your management back to the bargaining table. Either do to apathy or fear of retribution your labor group lacks the wherewithal to utilize those tools as leverage to force your management to negotiate a reasonable industry leading contract for your pilot group.

I want your labor group to have the same protections and guarantees that I have in my labor contract. I would actually rather see your pilot group awarded with a better contract, one that is industry-leading. You have declared your intentions, if you truly wish to receive support from your regional brothers and sisters and no longer be considered the "Bottom Feeders," of the regional airline industry... It is imperative that your labor group take action now.
