United is about to ramp up hiring again and the regional crunch will only tighten. And what about Delta and the C series? They are saying they will not pay the tariffs and guess who will have to cover that flying if that happens? Or who is already covering that flying? We do half of the heavy lifting why should we not get compensated for our work. Pay and 401k in the regionals are a joke and its time to end the C scale.
This guy gets it!
I guess the fear tactic of AA & DL using "Comair" is working.
Grow some balls people, different day and age.
They AA, DL, UA created a monster in our industry. 1st age 60 rule extension, a drastic change occurred in 2009 with the Colgan Air / United Express accident, and 2013/2014 with the 1500hr rule implementation.
Some of y'all need to take your thongs off and let your manhood dangle once in a while to remind yourself your not a little ..... boy. Put your big boy pants on, tighten your damn belt buckle & strap on your boots.
