Do the math buddy, it wasnt 19 people waiting for a job. Do you think I am giving a free pass to terrorist? read the post next time. And by the way it wasnt a high horse just an observation that you know nothing of family being on a real strike, not a one day work stoppage. Ever gone two months without a pay check?

AHEEMM.........
Fedex can and often does transfer flying to other airlines.........only they don't use regional jets they use 727's DC-10s, Md-11s , A300's and 747's........Atlas, Gemini, Trade winds,Kitty Hawk, Kalitta, KLM Air France and Luft as well as other Contract Charter outfits

Why are cargo carriers a different game with respect to start up carriers?
:confused:
There are plently of (probably more than the PAX side) slip shod , fly by night (no pun intnended) start up cargo outfits. They come and go.
What's your point??

are those company's permanently taking airplanes away from you like whats happening at tsa, expressjet, mesa, mesaba, airwisci, comair or are they doing charter work?

my point is that start up airlines have more of an immediate affect on other airlines than start up cargo carriers do against you guys.

lighten up chachi, I thought you were just refering to the first 19 gojeters and not that they were the terrorists...

2 months without a pay check...not even in the ballpark...that's childs play but nice try
