You know what, I want the flow but I want it done right. I like that CPZ pilots were hired by NWA pilots from day 1. I think 76 seaters are at worst replacement jets and at best still taking up one more gate, one more slot and one more 3 mile seperation. And if they want them to remain at DCI then know that if they replace a mainline jet and a mainline pilot then the mainline pilot gets to fly for it, on their dime.

If someone wants the flow cancelled then I'm willing to have people I pay and represent me to hear out the alternatives. But to me the best alternative for everyone involved is the elimination of DCI. The worst alternative is to get something good (including pay bumps) that we could later lose in exchange for something we don't want but will never lose. i.e. Don't sell our scope, sell their jets.

As to the thought of staple and add DCI into mainline, just know that overnight you'd have just about 0 50-seaters left and thousands on furlough. They'd have a number, but they'd be on furlough.
