We are in this position because of ALPA National's failures. They could've embraced the regionals, especially the vulnerable ones like Piedmont that had no future fleet plan, offered career support finding other positions. Coordinate merger agreements between wholly owned carriers. Mounted a Stop the Whipsaw type campaign. But instead they just sat back and let this 12/4 regional internship stuff become a trend.

In solidarity with my NO vote, promise to quit at Eagle when I lose my job along with all of the other pilots, flight attendants and mechanics at Piedmont. That's essentially what you're asking Piedmont pilots to do by telling them to vote no.
Not trying to devalue the Eagle no vote but we are definitely in a different position than any other regional given this type of offer.

Nope, I can just see that as a likely possibility. AAG is looking for more scare tactics to try and bring Envoy crawling back to the table. What better way to do that then to start transferring equipment off property. I'm telling you, it's coming. Either way I doubt Envoy will furlough because of it.
