Many years ago, before I returned to Delta on my recall, I was sitting next to Rob Maruster during dinner at The Leading Edge. I asked him when JetBlue was going to see pilots as assets. He didn't like that question at all. Stuttered for about 20 seconds, he did, before spewing off the JetBlue talking points about values, etc. Blah, blah, blah
