Well Rick,we did see it comming and had a great scope clause to keep MANAGEMENT from replacing us with YOU, but with a weak union in ALPO and threats of liquidation our ***** union leadership caved.As far as mainline being replaced by RJ's and I quote"It's the mainline ALPA guys who should have seen this **** coming...you think I enjoy flying what is essentially a mainline jet for turboprop pay????" You said it, YOU fly what is a mainline jet for nothing. I hope you really like it cause it's all you'll be flying for a really long time,and since at U our fleet has gone from over 400 planes and 6600 pilots down to 225 planes and 2700 pilots....wait haven't the RJ's been comming online at an exceedingly fast rate, oh but you said it,RJ's aren't replacing mainline. Enjoy your career..uh I mean job!
