ok tell me how? i understand youre removing a bottom feeder from the industry, but theyve essentially not been a big competitor for new contracts (except for the DAL contract) for a while now, so how are things going to improve?

well for one, maybe companies will realize that if you treat your pilot group like shiit and run your mx like they do................your going to loose money

I still dont see that. Management isnt going to all of a sudden have compassion for their crews. ASA treats its pilots horribly and theyre one of the most profitable airlines. Besides, competition is still going to be fierce, thats not going to let up. its going to get worse actually

Don't you work for Colgan or Pinnacle, if that is the case you have no room to speak...
