Yep, thanks tin. Not what I asked or suggested. Besides, Mesa doesn't have the money for something like that.

Sure, fair point. But in cases where the pilots are brought into the fold on one certificate? Cases like American/TWA, for instance. In a case like that, if for example Compass or Envoy or whoever acquired RAH, do the pilots have to vote to accept the acquiring airline's pilot contract or is it automatically theirs, now?
