So as long as you work for the carrier that is doing the forcing its ok. Based on history I am sure DAL and ALPA would have been there for everyone that lost jobs at Pinnacle if they were dissolved or liquidated so unemployment would be short lived right?
Stop the presses! An airline went bankrupt! History was made!
Sorry, but it happens all the time -- at the mainline, LCC, cargo and regional level. What's unfair is that somehow, someone, insisted on preferential interviews
with a different set of hiring minimums for a group of pilots.
