This is true
The only thing I did not understand was if our scope limited us from flying over 50 seats...why were we operating an ATR-72 for AA connection?
Also...why did we get to "vote" on one list and secure the flying? I know it was a bad deal with the 3 year extension and the GO (HOME) JET guys keeping their seats...but HOW COULD WE EVEN VOTE ON IT IF IT WAS NOT ALLOWED?
O'h...back the original question...DONT GO THERE HAHAHA...the CRJ guy taxing behind me could barely speak English ...just a nice touch.
