Agreed. So what's JC's status today? I assume he never got hired at Delta. Still at Comair?

He's talking about Comair's 28 700& 900s.

Why u ask? Lowest cost provider, puts pressure on all other DCI contract carriers; "whipsaw" as it is know, at its finest!

No one said the 200s for the trade had to come from the company that is getting the 7/900s.

I feel for all you guys still hanging on. What's the general concensus in CVG/DTW now, will they send a life boat in the form of a merger with XYZ regional, or liquidation buh-bye?

The first guy, I didn't say anything, just let him vent.

The second....well when the FO said that he agreed with Lawson and defended him, I spoke up.

I'll let you get back to "your" profession.
I find it funny that you only have the two Comair jumpseats to complain about. That's why I think you are full of sh*t. You're just another mainline pilot who stalks the regional forums speading hate and discontent. A person with nothing good to say and getting off on bashing the Comair pilots. And this is "my" profession, and I'm not going to sit by while guys like you bash my fellow pilots. So get off the regional forums and go spread your bullsh*t with "your" fellow pilots. I don't think they will like it either...just saying.

Well, I don't know what to tell you. It has been only two, and I thought that was rare. The vast majority, ComAir or otherwise, are good guys and gals. You guys at OH got screwed by those at the top of your union.

They poked a stick in DAL mgmt's eye with the strike (a picket line that I walked, BTW) and then poked another one in the eye of the DAL pilots with the RJDC and the Lawson letter.

The rest of you have had to deal with the fallout.

I'm out, I'll get off of "your" forum. Seems like I'm stressing you out

Jay, there's no need to go. I think we all should be able to accept everyone's opinion. I for one prefer no annimosity when discussing points of view and/or experiences.
