He said ORD and CLT are examples of hubs that would not exist with out RJ's.
Wow! This is the same message RLC used in the 1980's to get APA to accept Eagle flying. Come on guys please look at your history. This old saw has been around for over 3 decades yet we still have pilots who will drink this Kool-Aid. Pilots are indeed their own worst enemy. Return to the original scope: "If it flies and brings revenue to AMR(?) a pilot from the APA seniority list will perform the flying." This is all the scope clause needed by any and all pilot groups.
