An additional effect would also be that they'd then be forced to hire replacement pilots from other foreign carriers, thus further helping US carriers.
This should be done soon though before they get their in house cadet training spooled up.

A more correct analogy would be if the CEO of Delta were in charge of the Airport Authority that managed ATL.

Good luck to all of you over in the Sandbox that have aspirations of leaving. Unlike some I don't hold it against you for going over when things were so rough here.
And yeah, I can't phathom why the U.S. legacies aren't sucking the ME3 dry of pilots. Stopping the ME3 expansion is one of the few topics where both management and pilot unions are unified, so you would think.......

I have ton's of friends over at EK and I wish for them to come back home sometime soon. Hopefully the bad impressions that have been encountered will be forgotten and the good guys over there can make it back sooner than later.

Confidence is one thing. Entitlement or cocky is something completely different.
Edit: One more thing. Nobody here cares if you throw gear or are a captain on a 380 or 777-300. Nobody. Because you ain't gonna be doing that here. You are probably gonna be throwing gear on a 717/320/737 or maybe a 75-767. Flying the giant forehead ain't impressive enough to get you hired if you act like it makes you Niel Armstrong.
