I'm not sure where the mindset came from that current Midwest pilots would fly these airplanes. I don't even see that as plausable. The ONLY way they could is if they agree to concessions that would allow the transfer of "ownership" from RAH to this newly "dreamed up" certificate.

At BEST, this is a temp job for RAH pilots until Midwest shuts its doors and at worst, it is the end of the line for all but a handful of Midwest pilots until it's the end for all of them.

For Midwest to continue as an airline, the current pilots would have to give concessions that they won't make IMHO. This is a plan from Bedford to have someone else pay for his mistake on those 170's as much as possible for as long as possible.

This will not end well except for lawyers.
