I'm really confused. Why are you mad at Compass pilots? They have an above average contract and were recently awarded gains on their last negotiations. I fully support Eagle and what they did for the industry. If my management came to me and asked me for concessions for more flying, I'd say no and would lobby hard against it. Unfortunately, you called their bluff and they had pocket aces. They threatened to take the flying elsewhere if you voted no (technically their right because they own the routes and the planes) and you all knew that. You should be mad at AAG for reneging on a promise they made to you. Coming after Compass pilots and calling them bottom feeders is backwards. They didn't submit the bid. They didn't take concessions for flying. They definitely didn't steal "your" flying. They went to one of the best regionals out there to fly DCI E175s after being furloughed from now-defunct airlines to feed their families.
