One more comment on why 15% on DOS is an absolute joke. Have you seen Mesa’s rates? $215/hr to fly a CRJ 900. Have you looked at our contract? $181.54!!! 19% gets us to MESA rates!! And you think our pilots would vote to have ANY aircraft fly for LESS than Mesa? SkyWest’s TA is supposedly coming out by Monday. I can’t wait to compare their new TA rates on the CRJ to ours. It is only going to raise the bar.
I think you underestimate our pilot group. I also think management lost all credibility with their fallacy that we can’t afford to fly the RJs in house.
