If you cannot see the leverage that the industry had, then you're an idiot. All that leverage hindered on the different pilot groups not undercutting each other (which strangely enough, PSA agreed to but did not go through with.)
And please...don't fool yourself into thinking that nobody knows who PSA is or what you did. You're only doing a disservice to those who are new to the industry with a scarlet letter now on their resume.
Gotta go fly my shiny CRJ, don't worry I'm keeping the seat nice and warm for you.
Leverage, as you use it, means influence or power used to achieve a desired result. Please enlighten all of us to the leverage the regional carriers hold over the multi billion dollar mainline corporations. Don't say pilot shortage because even Endeavor is filling classes weeks out now.
