What if RAH captains flying the Delta 175s and interviewed and didn't pass. What happens to them? Tough luck for them? I don't think so...
I'm all for taking these jets back to mainline but since it was the majors that caused this problem in the 1st place, simply taking the planes back and saying so sorry "regional" pilots, you have to interview and get in line. Well simply put.... F you for being so selfish and not thinking of your regional brothers and sisters! I have to provide for my family too and now I have to be punished by past pilots mistakes of eroding scope.
And for the record, I haven't interviewed at any major yet. I do not feel comftorable moving on with all the crap going on in the world.
I don't know how you ment that comment Nu but just saying my peace.
Off my soapbox.
And that is the reason that it did not happen with EV and OH in 1999.
I have no issue with you keeping your seats, but fences and this like would be determined if there was a merger. It would not be a merger.
DAL owns the flying. We own most of the jets. We can redistribute them as we see fit. That is what happens when you work for an ACMI carrier. (Contract carrier.) I am not trying to be jerk either. This is why I left ASA. It pays to work for the carrier that creates the flying.
