I think most of the movement in the future will be flow down to Compass and Mesaba. NWA management has every intention of getting rid of every DC-9 they can, and replace them with RJ's. Its just a matter of time IMO.
NWA was my first choice back in 1999. They had iron clad scope language and NWA ALPA was unbreakable. While all the other legacy's were giving up their scope for Pay, NWA ALPA knew what would happen if they let RJ's on the property. Well, now, there no different then anybody else.
I just resigned today. It truly is a sad day for me. I thought I died and gone to heaven when I arrived in MSP that fall day in 99. It's a personal choice, and I pray I am doing the right thing!
Good luck to all!
