They seem the be The Chosen Ones in The New Delta.
I'd say Mesaba and Compass are the chosen ones. I wouldn't include 9E, especially with their performance as of late...

Question for some of the guys going to Mesaba. I was starting to fill out the application until I realized that it would take almost 5 years to break $30 an hour. Are those numbers correct? I took them off of Bored's post under the Mesaba new hires thread. If it is correct then I wish you guys luck.
Hopefully there's an upgrade before then

Former brothers and sisters? You can dump the former.

The ASA guys are still the closest thing to brothers that we Comair guys have in this business. So what if you moved out of DrunkenDaddyD's house and moved in with cheapa$$ Uncle Jerry in 2005?

I think the only reason we never merged is because no guy wants to marry his brother.

The guys getting furloughed are getting scrood with the passes, but maybe they weren't around long enough to figure out who our real friends are.

I didn't know ASA couldn't nonrev on Comair anymore. You guys got scrood too.
