So, you failed reading comprehension in school. Got it. Get back to me when you look up all those bigs words and figure out what I was saying.

If ALPA, or any other union, pushes the average on wages, conditions, or benefits upward, it does benefit the industry. All the other companies will feel the effects in hiring and turnover eventually, and have to move in the same direction to remain competitive.

What amazes me is the number of folks who not not recognize the built-in conflicts of interest for ALPA in representing both Regional and Legacy pilots. True, some of their needs are the same, but some are clearly not and never will be.

Scope isn't just a mouthwash.

Wait, so an airline that doesn't have the credit rating to purchase their own 175's is going ahead and buying a Sim??? What IF United decides to take their 175's away?

Except all regional airline unions have lowered the bar over the last 5 years, whereas, the non-unionized groups (JetBlue formerly and Skywest) have not taken concessions. Now before people read 3 words of this, misread it, and like Neanderthals get angry, I'm not saying get rid of unions. I'm saying that the unions aren't raising the bar right now and therefore you can't say that "everyone else's contracts" benefits from them.

Um, is this a serious question?

1) Sell it. 175s aren't going to disappear.
2) Keep it and use the cost savings to underbid on another 175 RFP.
3) Lease it to another carrier at a better rate than FSI and let them use their own instructors
