And sorry but SCAB comes pretty close here. Maybe you arent crossing a picket LINE, however Midwest guys who fly a plane with one fewer seats then you will be are out of a job. They had better pay rates, better work rules, better schedules etc. By them saying NO to flying these E175s that were all but forced down their throat put them out of a job. On the same note, you are all now saying YES to flying these two new planes (with options for more) for a lesser pay rate. Other then you arent ONE pilot group, you are basically crossing the LINE. Sorry SCABS! Just like Gojets.
Actually personally I think this is lower than gojet. At least that was regional vs regional and there wasn't a strike anyways but. this is a different ball game. I probably wouldn't use the word scab but it's a new low that's for sure.
