I guess the easy way to put my point is by virtue of Delta owning endeavor, we do in fact fall under the same umbrella. Unlike skywest and republic that are independent companies, endeavor is under the same umbrella as us.
You're parsing words here. Common sense tells me I worked for Delta, not as a contractor or part of a wholly owned subsidiary, but Delta Air Lines. They work for Endeavor, not Delta. I really don't see any difference between them and ComAir or ASA for example. We never would have supported giving them this S3A "windfall" then, and I don't think Endeavor is any different. No matter what you say, most people wouldn't consider Delta pilots and Endeavor pilots being essentially equal, each working for Delta Air Lines inc.
