ALPA argued that GOjet is the same as Freedom, an alter ego and they lost. It's proven in courts, look it up. TSA pilots had the chance to fly but they voted it down. I am not sure how you can keep arguing that GJ took away flying that TSA VOTED down. GJ pilot seniority was created after the vote, it's not as if the pilots that joined willingly took flying from TSA, it was available. And I'm going to say it again, the circumventing of the CBA argument doesn't hold because GJ ended up getting CRJ7 pay wich is better than others and a better contract than TSA and other places. Does it make much sense for management to do that if they formed GJ for the exact opposite reason to pay **** wages with no work rules?? It's not the best but it's still better than regionals that have had 25+ years in business.
