Nothing against the Cappy pilots, we are all just suckers and our own worst enemies!

I can't believe we all just fall for the same standard plays out of the Lorenzo mgt handbook. Spin the company off, cut pay, divide the pilot group, entice other pilots with promise of great things to come.... repeat at new company, collect giant mgt retention bonus.

Scope clause, union v union, RJs, mainline, B-scale, snapbacks, bankruptcy, union rules relaxed to faa mins, spin-offs, code share, foreign ownership...... all strategies in the Management Playbook. Think about it!!

Sorry to vent and no harm meant to any pilot.....
