I hardly believe you guys didn't cry about losing some of those DELTA routes. Don't flatter yourself.
Didn't cry one bit! Also didn't cry when compass came in with 20 eagle 175's (after we voted no)thereby taking all of the flying we (envoy/eagle)did in lax. Maybe you need to educate some of your new guys then since you have experienced the shuffle before. It's all part of the game.

Yeah Sounds like you're the one crying a little bit. Maybe more of a whine than a cry? You show your ignorance when you insinuate that it is the pilots who make the business decisions around here. We are given planes and we fly the routes mainline says. You'll get it one day I'm sure of it.

Best thing I've read in years!

Blocked clearances in SLC and telling ATC "The Mesaba CRJ has a door open", only to taxi back and figure out everything is fine. Keep it classy guys, and remember sunglasses belong on your face or in a case.

Hence the sarcasm. Present days SkyWest pilots don't act like that. In the past I'm sure all pilot groups acted differently.

How much of Go Jets's operation is concentrated at LAX?
