The "American Eagle" painted airplanes flown by PSA were awarded to PSA as a direct result of PSA pilots voting in massive concessions and greatly lowering the bar. PSA pilots had everything to do with PSA taking Eagle's flying.
It's pretty obvious why Eagle guys are mad at PSA and not mad at ExpressJet pilots, etc.
Massive concessions? PSA got an increase in pay for the majority of pilots. It is pretty small, but an increase is and increase. PSA got improvements to mainline hiring. It's not flow through but and increase is an increase. Envoy voted down the flying. Once that happened it was no longer Envoys to be had.
