Plus one to this! Nothing would be better for the profession than ending the outsourcing. At best it won't happen until existing contracts expire but its not too much to ask in my opinion. If I buy a ticket on Delta then a Delta pilot should fly it. RJs, SAABs, Metros... all of it.
Ten years plus at a regional on a B scale only to start over with zero seniority flying the same passengers for the same company. We can do better.
Take it back.
