Goodness.. I was simply saying this issue of 100 seat pay for Midwest/Frontier has nothing to do with scope because they're on a different certificate.
I don't see this 100 seat regional feed spreading to UA,AA,DA or any other large carrier because it would be like slitting your own throat (a topic which has been beaten to death).
WHEN SkyWest,XJet and the rest buy 100 seat planes to "codeshare" (which is different than regional feed) for UA or AA, etc.. this Republic deal will be the benchmark for those pilots wages.
