The arbitrator fell for management's sob story, without realizing we were already sold. Republic pilots can help rewrite history by securing a decent contract. Good luck. We all need it!
I hope you are right. I certainly know there will be a good bit of us looking to write some of the wrongs this industry has sent "our" way. I just hope that we can over come the RAH Koolaid. There are quite a few that are currently drinking it and we are hopeful they are in the minority rather than the majority.

I have no desire for the 190 but if we should fly together someday, I've got the first round.
