Fact is that RA is a lawyer and though vague he is definitely referring to the mainline employees.
He is responsible for the shrinking of DCI. The man knows there is a place for RJ's. He just knows that their place at the table needs to shrink. That is actually good for you guys. It means more mainline jobs.
Apparently there isn't a place for Saabs either. Everyone knows the Saabs make money unless they fly totally empty.
I don't think the current shrinking of the wholly owned carriers means more mainline flying. Taking the Saab out of Dubuque or International Falls will never mean an Airbus will take over that route...ever. It's that type of shrinking that makes me furious. That's the kind of shrinking currently happening. I would understand your statement if they took the RJ off the MSP-SLC or MSP-IAH route and replaced them with an Airbus. Those RJ routes are going strong.
