It is no such thing. It is Major's Assured Destruction. As long as there are pilots willing to fly for starvation wages, no flying is safe. The only destruction will be regionals performing all majors flying, and major pilots deciding whether they want to fly for the only folks doing any flying...the regionals. And the best part will be, the formerly major pilots who decide to do this will do so at the bottom of the list. Still think it's Mutually Assured Destruction?
