Skippy and friends, you're geniuses. Mental juggernauts.
Bedford traded FAPA a pay freeze in exchange for ownership in the future independent Frontier Airlines as well as a profit sharing plan tied to the same matrix as the management bonus plan. It's simply converting future raises from short term gains to long term investments.
But none of that matters. All the Frontier pilots want, and would pay a lot more to get is to reverse the raping and pillaging that the IBT has done to their careers. We would rather succeed of fail on our own than to see the IBT steal what we have earned and built over a long period of time.

But remember it says:
The company will make a "good faith" effort to reduce their ownership stake to a minority by December 2014. Right, "good faith" from BB? Sure.
FAPA does not want to be IBT and BB used this to play them.
When the door closes at F9 ...then the F9 boys will start demanding to be on the SLI. You heard it hear first.

I can only speak for myself, but I can assure you I will never want to be on your seniority list. If Frontier goes away, I will gladly run as fast as I can away from anything Republic. I think most Frontier pilots have no desire to fly for a regional or commuter again. We will either move on to other majors or do something else respectable for a living. A whole different talent pool here gang. Not just a bunch of ERAU grads with no other skill sets here.

Well,since they can't displace a RAH pilot,they will have to resign their seniority and start at the bottom-bwhahahaha ! Maybe we can give them "preferential interviews"...Bwahahaha ! Seriously,the chance of this happening is just about zero.
