And to boot They will probably fly them for a heck of a lot more money then you are getting! GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ***!
Haven't you been at Comair long enough yet to get rid of Shiny jet syndrome? You will not get to fly a Delta jet whether or not they have a flow through!
So did you just pull 2025 out of your ***? considering there is talk about DL hiring next year due to growing international flying, NWA pilots retiring (thay have a far older workforce than DL), and the DL work rules require more pilots than the NWA contract did.
The Mesaba flowthrough states only as many that flow up can flown down. So there won't be a flush as you say.
A flow through like this could help people move up and out, increase attrition, lower upgrade times, and allow furloughed pilots to return. I would most likely never get to flowthrough to DL since I'm down on the comair list(realistically probably 80 to 100 people or so will flow up), but it would help movement at the airline.
I'm not sure where you got SJS syndrome out of that, but then again your post stated no facts to back up your other rationale.
