Maybe it has already been said but...
Given that RAH pilots are in negotiations it is now up to them as a pilot group to demand industry-leading wages. Before they accept a new contract it is not fair to blame them for decisions their management made.
The recent growth made by RAH proves they are not in financial trouble and it's now up to the pilots of RAH to galvanize and demand fair pay.
It's disheartening what's happened at Midwest and Frontier but right now RAH pilots have the opportunity to step up to the plate and move forward in the right direction. Given the media spotlight on regional pay, an NMB that respects the RLA, and the deep pockets of RAH, and they have every right to hold out until they are paid at least JetBlue wages.
Anything short of that would prove that RAH pilots aren't willing to stand up for this profession, and such bitterness towards them would THEN be deserved.
