Yeah because before Republic everything was perfect, we were all getting 18 days off a month and making $200K as a second year FO and mainline was hiring a couple thousand pilots a month.
Sure Republic has been the black eye of the industry for the last couple years but the downward spiral that this industry is in started back before Republic even existed. Republic is just a small piece of the crappy 121 puzzle. Now if the pilots at RAH don't unite and demand a decent major contract I'll quit.
