Who knew?

I agree things are way behind the curve, but you're illustrating my point. Comair can't push up alone, those "other" regionals need to raise the bar, so Comair has more leverage next time around. I respect what Comair pilot's were doing. Each negotiation is different, different market conditions, different hiring trends, different playing fields. Wisdom is in knowing how far you can push and settling there. Unfortunately, not everyone is willing to push as hard.
My concern is not what a group is able to gain, but the sense that they feel they earn "enough".
