They were not negotiating rates for new equipment while management created a new airline to pay lower wages. The flying was given away and when they wanted it back, they got it. The American Connection flying was not a major issue when TSA pilots were getting hired at TSA, nor was TSA created specifically to steal the flying from Eagle. Hell, the flying goes back to the TWE days. You could make an argument that the flying belonged to TSA before it ever belonged to Eagle. The point is you are making a comparison where no comparison can possibly be made. You stating a fact about TSA pilots doing Eagle flying while their pilots were furloughed completely ignores the situation and tries to appeal to peoples' emotions, not logic. It makes you look bad in the end. Tell the whole story next time.
Fluff it up and sugarcoat it all you want. It doesn't matter that an alter-ego carrier wasn't created or that an TSA wasn't one to Eagle (might as well have been). The principle is still the same and it doesn't do away with the hypocrisy of a TSA'ers lambasting
non A list GoJet pilots. I already stated that I was talking in the context of POST A LIST GJ pilots, remember?
Like I said, there's no getting around the facts and you seem to like to ignore them. No amount of calling other people stupid validates your skirting the relevant facts.
I really don't want to bother to check your posting history. That said, anyone that spews BS about GJ pilots not getting hired at other carriers, having trouble with jumpseating, being given the cold shoulder in the hotel van etc.
are the drama queens of APC's regional forum. In the REAL WORLD, this stuff does not/will not happen. The current GJ is effectively no different than any other regional.
