They are trying to just get as much as they can out of what time they have left in this career. It will always be this way, and management knows that. Now there are some that are willing to fight, but I have meet more than a few that will not give up one gain for tighter scope.

Further more, regional pilots can stop slapping the mainline groups with lawsuits when they do not get flying they think they deserve. It is counter productive.

The problem is the RJ is growing in size and soon the RJ will undermine your scale. Do not think the majors will be safe if the larger RJs continue to grow in size or numbers.

Midwest and United are examples that scope is EVERYTHING!
