Fraternity in this biz means stealing out of your brothers back pocket to feed yourself, and if he stops you, you yell "he's beating me up".
Very true. I agree 100% with your analysis. Thousands were furloughed from Legacy carriers while Regionals built fleets of 200-250 CRJs and ERJs, replacing great jobs with great pay and benefits. Now, the shoe is on the other foot and regionals are downsizing.
