The silence from your Union should corroborate this story. If they came out and denied it, national would have their hand forced on he truth.

I would be surprised if the Cuuj has even actually seen the whole letter.

Why would the envoy guys be mad? Well let's see....You get awarded our planes and we shrink and stagnate. Before even taking a single airplane, your Union sends a letter to ALPA national saying that taking the planes right now will cause you to implode. They then suggest we(envoy) should commit to helping you by striking a deal to send you our pilots with the planes.

AAG wants to keep the Dash 8 flying till they time out. They are paid for and cash cows. All the Dash 8's will be gone by 2019 so why not leave it alone and everyone on the Piedmont Property would be at American by 2019.
Oh well I guess the bean counters know what's going on.

It's like stepping over a dollar to pick up a quarter. For what??? Just Open an ERJ base for Envoy in PHL or DCA.
