Wish I had thought to request the MEC pay for hotel rooms for any Endeavor pilots who wish to fly out and attend. The answer to this "problem" is to either flow the pilots who operate these jets to Delta, as Delta pilots, or give the entire Endeavor list Delta numbers and let them bid into mainline equipment as their seniority holds it. If the company doesn't like the turnover on the RJ's then they just need to pay the RJ types more.
Savings can come through staff reductions of the managers who maintain the redundant certificate(s).
DALPA is going to picket? Lol JFC. And that’s the problem right there. What if 9E guys/girls stood up for this? I bet DALPA wouldn’t even buy those that show up to picket lunch.
