I thought that was a promise, not a threat. I suppose they (United) will start swinging the axe on more that just CLE then. Ha! Lack of "available" pilots? Put bid out to _______ regional airline. Good luck on _______ regional airline getting new hires to fly them. The churn machine is broken. Maybe a couple close to zero seniority guys bail. Almost no one else is going to become a newhire at _______ regional airline. Rather collect unemployment.
I see United is handing out a lot of RFPs lately... going to be hearing crickets not bids.
Off topic slightly, but basically the same thing going on at our house.
