In both cases, the respective managements were/are looking to outsource the flying, violating the pilot groups' existing contract.
I personally don't think anyone gains anything by bickering. But if some of you TSA guys hate GoJet, then maybe you should understand why some Eagle guys hate TSA right now.
Just to set the record straight, I'm a Comair pilot, not TSA. However, I respectfully disagree with your statement. Comparing TSA to Eagle and TSA to GoJets is apples to oranges.
TSA has flown for AA since the TWA purchase and AMR decides where and when they fly, not TSA.
TSA management created a scab airline, GoJets to bust the unionized TSA pilots, among other reasons. Pilots going to GoJets knew what they were getting into when they were hired on (hopefully). They were going to a Mesa-esque airline that lowers the industry bar and makes it difficult for the rest of us to try to earn a halfway decent living.
