Im the last guy to cheer on the teamsters, but what is the alternative? The last regional to strike was comair in the late 90s. ALPA just went on a concession spree across the regional industry. The bottom line is regional pilots are screwed due to the NMB. Even in the face of failure and an enormous pilot shortage at this level, management has successfully stalled negotiations at some carriers while forcing concessions at others. This goes completely against every business and market principle there is. Its artificial and facilitated by our inept govenrment giving these money drunk executives all the power.
