Sorry to say, but this "project" has been ongoing for well over a year and a half. It's why Claude Sullivan left Ford Harrison to work with DAL management and Lee Moak. DALPA want's the flying for their mainline pilots and they have been working on the plan of how to load shed all DAL regional "partners."
Anyone who thinks Moak cares about the regionals is sadly mistaken. His only concern is mainline. No one flying DAL colors is safe.
Ernie Gann was right about them sixty years ago. Nothing has changed.
