I have read several posts where people are saying that RAH took MidW flying. My understanding is that RAH invested 20 or 30 million to keep them afloat. So did they take 1/4 of their flying or did they save 3/4 of their jobs? I personally think RAH saved them, albeit for the time being, from all being on the street.

I thinks it's more like taking 3/4 of their jobs, then 2 years later taking the remaining 1/4 of them.

You don't get it. The pilots are being replaced and their mainline airplanes, who cares if a company that shouldn't be surviving, is? I'm sure the Midwest pilots would feel some more dignity if the company shuts down rather than replace them and their airplanes with RAH.

So are you saying if you had a choice you wouldn't be accepting a job at RAH because they fly for Midwest and that they replace furloughed midwest guys and fly mainline airplanes as well while their at it? But since it looks like a case of the chicken before the egg, your hands are tied. The fact of the matter is you guys will be even bidding for it, we'll see how junior the flying goes. Now your management even fixed the pay issue for you guys by making it below 99 seats, HOW CONVENIENT FOR YOU!!! 66 717s VS 95 seat E190s. Somebody said something about throwing up.....
