That's the thing, there really aren't 400 pilots with atp mins ready to jump on at PSA to staff these things. I've never been one to spread the BS of a pilot shortage, but it appears that at the regional level, thanks to the new mins, it's really happening. Bring over the PDT pilots in a merger (we have a list already which is very favorable to PDT pilots) and start replacing the dashes with 900's. Very simple and efficient. Only the PSA idiots will be on a b-scale going "hey what happened to my 2 year upgrade" while the PDT guys will make out like bandits. And before you cite the TA language which states that these airplanes will be flown by "PSA pilots", understand that when merged, PDT pilots will be PSA pilots working for the surviving "airline" name: PSA.
