[QUOTE=John Pennekamp;739549]They can't do that. It would be a major violation of section 24 of our contract. They must put it up for bids, and accept the results, or otherwise, they will have to NEGOTIATE a side letter with the union allowing them to "hand pick". Now if they took from the SkyWest side, they could do whatever they want... (hint, hint).

Not saying I disagree with you.... only stating what I was told.
