just so i'm understanding this correctly. united's management is violating the contract that continental (now united) has with its pilots.

and the solution is:

punish skywest pilots.

i guess i don't see the logic there.

united pilots gave up scope. continental pilots didn't. continental is now united. maybe the continental guys don't know how united treats its employees, but here's lesson #1, right? 66 seat regional jets in houston and soon to be in newark. that's YOUR management doing it to you, it's not skywest, or republic, or anyone else.

complain to the people that made the decision. don't blame and punish the people who are stuck with the results of the decision just like you are.
