Saab I know you understand that you can't protect flying that isn't yours, much like XJT was defenseless when RAH came to town they will be defenseless when SKW or someone else rides in.

Don't take offense, it's just reality.
I'm kinda shocked to hear that come from you JetJock. Yeah, we know the flying isn't ours, but it still doesn't come off good to say that RAH and/or Skywest comes riding in. The only way to really feel good about losing our flying is if the main line guys get it. The whole reasoning being that pilots would have to start all over at year 1 pay. This of course should be great concern to all of us, since you can see how it would just bounce back and forth between regionals so the new contractor could have lower costs due to lower paid employees(year 1 pay).

That said, I haven't been saying too much on here lately, because I've been trying to keep my mouth shut on whats going on. Saab has a very good idea, more so than I do, but I think he is trying to tell all of you something: It's probably best to tone it down. Remember the whole year and a half upgrade at RAH? That died down quick, Frontier, CAL and possible American reductions. This industry is changing so rapidly every day, it's best to sit back and just do our job, fly.
