You your self said it..... this is managements brew on both sides.... the pilots are just pawns.
How is this any different than the Gojet/ TSA and Mesa/ Freedom debacle? Those pilots took over flying that belonged to other pilot groups and did it cheaper. They got labeled scabs. I don't see how this is any different. Midwest guys are getting screwed by management, and if any Republic pilots are willing to step in and do the flying Midwest pilots are doing for less, then they should be scabs too.

Finally, I never called Republic pilots scabs. I merely stated that they should be labeled that IF, and only IF, they take over Midwest flying.
