In another attempt to be positive about this situation this could potentially give mainline unions more leverage to bring flying back in house if the industry recovers rapidly. With the shutdown of two regionals already in motion with the possibility of more coming combined with the pilots that will say screw it I’m out for good I think pilots should stand strong and absolutely reject any concessions except for non contractual temporary exceptions. If the regionals are decimated by this and a rapid recovery does happen the lift will have to come from somewhere.

Of course this is just an opinion talking point on the positive side but we have to try to stay positive!
