Right now the only thing on their minds is the money pouring into new hire's pockets and they see none of it.
Yes correct again with only 2 choices. Accept this or everyone is out of a job. Same choices NWA pilots had... No wait NWA pilots had a merger policy and after what AA did to TWA. Companies cannot throw mainline pilots out on the streets. Their jobs and livelihoods matter but regional pilots do not. If when Republic or Skywest gets bought out just throw out all their pilots just a regional anyway who cares?
