If your referring to our statistics, obviously nothing we do will help. The fact of the matter is, when Delta needs to make cuts it is going to come from us. Mesaba and Compass are cheap, so they are safe (for a few years.)
Delta has contracts with the other DCI carriers, which unlike our pilot contract, will take Delta to court to defend and get whats theirs. Delta wouldn't touch those contracts unless they absolutely had to.

I hope everyone realizes this displacement is a direct reaction to the expiration of the flex line value letter of agreement. Our union, to which we are required to pay dues to, has only considered the top 500 pilots interest. The MEC chairman all the way down to the status reps have huge grudges against this company for the alleged crimes of the past. We all live in a different world now. If you're considered 'lucky' to have a job in this economy, our union needs to wake up a realize agreeing to a provision in the contract that gives the company more flexibility to react to changes in the block hours by adjusting minimum guarantees with out furloughing people, even if it means saving 1 job, is well worth it. At the end of the day, Comair is just another company trying make money in an incredibly difficult environment. The union and the top 500 have lost sight of this.
