If you dont want to be brought over to mainline then fine it probably wont happen anyway.. Its funny though most of the Compass guys are smart enough to see the benefits of it. They are represented by the NWALPA though so its a different deal for them.
I'm not arguing with you; I want a staple job. I simply telling you what management has up their sleeve in terms of stopping scope recapture.
Yes the new delta contract reduces the number of 70 seat RJ's to 255 from the original 290. together delta and NWA currently operate less than 200 of these things, so they can buy more. The career slide still continues......
