Bidding the 900 without proper pay rates is not cool in my book. However, the FOs who are being assigned the 900 straight out of initial are not to blame since they don't have a choice... The guys who chose to bid the 900 without a pay scale are a different matter...
Completely agreed...there is a reason the rollout was welcomed with picketing. Coupled with a tough commute (ATL) and probably longer upgrade and DAL benefits instead of NWA benefits, I would think no one bids it anyways, and that it's an assigned a/c.
