Don't be mad at PSA for trying to secure our own futures (and honestly, the contract that was ratified was hardly concessionary. It was give and take, like most contracts are. Some things improved, some didn't). Regionals were not meant to be made a place to call home. And we didn't ask for Envoy's 700s. That was DP's game plan. At least they are staying under the AAG umbrella and not being farmed out to a lower cost regional.
Hehe... we have a live one here! Not mad in even the slightest way, just confronting sensationalism with fact- that's all. You claim we had "dozens" of XJT guys jump ship for PSA, which simply isn't true. That's all. After a few years, you'll realize we're all just pawns. The regional industry is just a giant bumfight- PSA beat someone else out for a moldy tuna sandwich. Tomorrow, some other bum will come in a take it from them... and the cycle continues. I'll tell you one thing that I've learned from nearly a decade of 121 flying at the regionals- no one's future is ever secure. The sooner you come to terms with that, the happier you'll be.
