i feel that my coment has been interpreted wrongly. I am looking foward to getting the SLI completed and also having the midwest, frontier, and lynx pilots all combining with the RAH pilots to help make Republic a better place to work at. I will not accept the attitude of some on this board that they are some how better than me because of what company they work for. I will also not accept countless attacks from people who have no idea what is going on in our company or blame any republic pilot for what has happend with midwest. None of us signed off on it just as none of the pilots were excited about getting 175's for usair as they were parking 737's. Hopefully this debacle will teach people that it is more important to negotiate a tight scope clause that doesnt come down to if the word "connect" is painted on the airplane or not. This new RAH airline hopefully will be the first airline where every pilot from the largest airplane to the smallest will be on one seniority list. However that list is comprised of it doesn't really matter. Any other result will be a trmendous mistake.
