Nope, it wouldn’t. Obviously you have comprehension issues. Delta must love your type, flying their metal at a discount under a separate employer they own and you thinking you’re “basically a Delta pilot”.

The example they used is even worse than your situation. Not only is that minor leaguer not a Yankee but the Yankees own his rights. He can’t walk until his minor league contract ends, they call him up to the Yankees, or they trade him to another team.
