I'm sorry but when we were all on the street we were all competing for jobs against each other. It's not my fault that their companies went into bankrupcy and got bought. I happened to be furloughed by a company that didn't really need to, and I got my seat back. Awful lot of belly aching from guys who have had some tough luck. Again, if the major's hadn't caved on allowing RJ's to be flown for pennies on the dollar, these mega regionals would not exist, nor have the money to acquire LCC's. 76 seats is still too much.
If you want to get on here and show your ignorance of the facts surrounding the shutdown of MEH (or maybe you just like to spin things to make yourself feel better).........
At least give the MEH pilot group the common courtesy of a reach around since we DID NOT CAVE when we were "offered" to be paid your pathetic rates under the
threat of bankruptcy. You are welcome!
I hope for two things:
1) That RAH pilots are not the tool(s) which end up deconstructing F9's world
2) That 15 or 20 down the road you do not end up realizing the same fate or tough luck as you call it. If you do then we shall see how you handle it
