Also, even if upgrades are needed, they will not happen unless you have new FOs too. You can't have an airline full of captains.
Goodness... None of you read post. NO ONE SAID anything about "quality control".... Cost control yes. If you look at most of the companies that Delta own, they are simply a mechanism to control cost. 9E is no different from those other companies. There is a reason that Delta is the most profitable major airline in the US. Cost control. Part of the way they do it is by controlling similar companies that are vendors and a low cost. Just do a google search on all the subsidiaries that Delta own and see how they are intertwined within their operation and you will get a clear picture. Start with the oil rig. Endeavor is part of that mechanism. Simple....
Stop with all the emotional post and start posting facts. Not trying to start an argument, but I think it would be helpful for our fellow pilots to see facts. Also to the public that we are not all immature uneducated individuals.
