It may not be their fault, but I don't buy the "just following orders" stuff either. Work for someone evil and you risk the fallout of being associated with them. No rides for RAH pilots on my JS.
Well if you want to gain the support of the Republic pilot group, this would be a great way to do it. I’m sure starting a JS war will convince them. BTW, if you happen to work at an airline that uses this tactic, I sure hope you don't cry when the RP pilots return the favor! You can always tell those pilots that don’t commute, because they're always the first to talk this nonsense.
