Pipe dream. Scope choke is working for the moment, as is. We’d all like to be doing the 76 seat flying, but I highly doubt that’ll happen. If anything a NSNB order will allow the company some extra 76 seat flying. Heck, the company has already violated our scope language this year.
Its amazing how people get so excited about a special meeting, i mean common!

Skywest can either get something for the XJT side or UAL will turn somebody else into the rope that strangles Skywest.
The bigger question is what UA ALPA and management will be able to negotiate, if anything. I believe that’s the hang up.

Yeah, there is all that to weight. UAL already owns 49% of CommutAir. Yeah, everyone says UAL tried to transfer flying to them already but it didn’t work, but as has been proven with Endeavor, Republic and others if you dump enough money into something it will work.

Yeah, it's become quite obvious that we are being fed a load of BS to keep us here. Personally, I feel like such a sap for believing it. Every month there's a reason that the purchase of XJT can't be announced... but it's a done deal. The ship is righting. Keep the faith. Good news is coming. Really. Pinky promise.

SKYW will just start posting losses to the erj side, and those losses will look just like what happened to the crj side. All that crap is just accounting gimmicks which are technically legal-just immoral as all hell.
The bottom line is SKYW does NOT want a union to deal with. Once these contracts wind down, what’s left of these subsidiaries will too.
I’ve known this would go down this way ever since SKYW pilots voted the union down-hard.
I hate the way it’s turning out, but anyone who’s honest with themselves knows how this will play out.
