In the words of Captain Tony - swing and a miss. Our MEC is filled with yes voters; I voted no and would do it again.
And a rough week? Who expected those planes to come here? Didn't Brad say no new planes until there's a JCBA? I think 83% of us were OK with those planes going elsewhere if it meant flying them for a penny less. The only ones running scared are those that have made a bad name for themselves and are stuck here. Sorry your fear campaign isn't working on the rest of us.
83% of us are proud to stand up for our profession alongside the Envoy pilots. Republic is already parking planes because they can't hire enough pilots. PSA can't hire enough pilots to fly the 30 CRJ 900's they sold their souls for; how are they going to staff another 47 CRJ 700's from Envoy? Same issue at Mesa. I agree there's a bright future. For some, it's at a major. For others, it's flying the planes the bottom feeders can't staff, for MORE.
