The RAH pilots should certainly be congratulated over the scope success.

But here's something to keep in mind for future contracts...

AA and UA pilots negotiated the limitation on RJ size which applies not only to their brand of feed but to any OTHER flying done by their regionals. Why did they apply it to flying outside of their brand? Presumably to help slow the industry-wide shift of flying from mainline to the regionals. They expended negotiating capital to help protect other pilot groups.

Us regional pilots should think twice when our companies come up with schemes to circumvent other people's scope.
