United alpa has put the numbers to Kirby on the table and yes
It’s cheaper to fly the 100 seat aircraft with United seniority pilots
Kirby may lose his job over his scope relief dream
UAL contract has provisions for more 76 seaters if he brings 100 seat aircraft in house for United seniority pilots to fly it
The 550 BS may be the nail in the coffin for Kirby
He had one screw up with the dream to fight LLCs a year ago that was scrapped quick
