Why do you guys get to have your cake and eat it too, but we get left holding an empty bag? That doesn't seem fair does it? You want to keep your stuff, the fine. I want a big fat signing bonus. Like 5 figures after taxes
That doesn't seem fair? But it seems fair to you that the ERJ side concedes while the CRJ side is brought up to meet in the middle? What is wrong with each side just at least keeping what they have?!!! You don't lose ANYTHING and we don't lose anything. Unbelievable!

Skywest Inc purchased Expressjet. I don't think this rumor is true, BUT IF the Inc was going to do this to try to complete the merger, they wouldn't cut their nose off to spite their face in the process. They would just disguise aircraft taken off the CPA, that were going to come off anyway (for whatever reason) and let the pilots twist in the wind trying to figure out if it's punishment. Again, I'm not saying this is true. I'm just agreeing that they wouldn't give away profitable flying just to complete the merger.
