And less new hires will mean no more airplanes.

There’s more one deal that’s not done!!

Envoy and pretty much every real regional out there just increases the bonus, hourly rates or offers flow to bring people in. That's the company's job to incentivize this place.

The union didn’t start or pick this fight. Letter 2 is something the company agreed to. They should have the integrity to hold their word. Much like they ask our pilots to have integrity, day in, and day out on the line.

It’s also not the unions fault the CPP and Hogan’s have come to a standstill at ExpressJet, Commutair, Mesa and Air Wisconsin while United and the company advertise it as a direct path to United that has hired “thousands”. This is categorically untrue.

You wish for the pilots and union of Expressjet to sit silent while you tell new hires it’s all roses here.

The fact of the matter is both sides need to work together to improve this place to get more planes here. This will dramatically improve QOL and bring more new hires in.

That’s not Subodh’s MO though, so this is where we stand.

Spoken like a true management crony. Just look at history and any negative information campaign by a union. They generally get results because they work. It’s giving the market a little push in a certain direction. Not sure why you’re so against gains for the pilot group and becoming more in line with the rest of the industry. Unless you’d prefer we remain 3rd from the bottom like XJT is now.

I haven't received one cent of that EQO nonsense. But then again, I don't work a lot. And if you leave the airline even a day before the quarterly payout, you get ZILCH, NADA, BUPKIS, ZERO.
