Lets rewind a year and see all the posts about how the 70 and 90 seat rj's are a godsend and will be a good thing for this industry. I dont knock the pilots for flying them but its pretty ignorant to say "YES we got more flying" when everyone knows and its been proven to show that 70 and 90 seat regionals are taking away more jobs at the majors then any 50 seater ever could. Sure 50 seat jets took away jobs at the majors but it could never be viewed as a direct replacement for a small 73 or Airbus product.

If i was at republic i would be cautious in dealing with this management. If they are that willing to screw over their own employees you can start to imagine how they will treat you.

And it appears that frontier flying is gone for good. That money invested into Frontier better get you guys something good when they start auctioning off pieces.
