Please, tell us all what your standard of SCAB is if something other than a picket-crosser.
Allegiant not Scabs... They never took another pilot group or airline flying. They were a startup for a totally diferent market sector. They just have bad pay rates for what they fly.
Gojet Pilots.. where do we start?? Looking at whats happening to TSA and the growth G7 is having, growth of the backs of TSA pilots (to be continued)
Virgin America. Not scabs.. just a startup that wants to mirror Allegiant and do it's own flying as well for crappy rates.. They did'nt send another pilot group to the streets.
JetBlue.. started up with really bad rates and things turned around for the better. They did not take anyone's flying even though their rates sucked. Redwood (V.A) looks to be like Jetblue and I am sure Allegiant will come thru with industry standard rates on the MD-80's.
What RAH is doing is more the same as what Gojets did. Come in with the big shiny jet fly it for pennies and hope that one day management with throw you a bone.. Not surprised both these airlines are represented by Teamster's. Is that their initial plan to always get the flying first?
