Where did he say he had a problem with Pinnacle guys? The issue is with the manner in which dalpa wasn't invited to sit in on the Pinnacle flying/preferential interview agreement (and if it exists which I doubt, the vault letter).
Flying DAL pax IMO, should carry some weight, but in the case of Comair, it seemingly had the opposite effect.
We only want DAL to hire the best guys. Any employee at any company should want the same. Fwiw, I'm writing 2 letters for pinnacle guys. That is the only sway we have over the hiring process.
