Ha, not much will cool him off. I just find it ironic hes in such a rush to join the list of pilots blamed for his company's demise.

Not naming folks individually, but it is obvious who they are - They are an embarassment to our profession on an individual basis and are dragging down the public perception of our once highly respected career.

I don't think anyone went into this with that type of attitude. But the name calling and strong arming we get is getting old. Becoming defensive is a natural reaction and you guys are deserve every ounce of whats happpened if you think that you can march in here call us names, steal bags out of hotel vans, and expect us to just lie down and let you walk all over us.

Pinnacle and Skywest have not replaced mainline airliners with regional pilots! What you should be doing is to refuse the E190 flying, legally.

Skywest flys MANY routes with CR2s and CR7s that were once mainline. What are you talking about?

Does Skywest fly 737s with 99 seats? I mean E190s......

Does United have a buttload of pilots on furlough who used to fly 737's on routes that are flown by Skywest pilots in CRJ's?

Carreer expectations.......? I am playing devils advocate here but weren't yx's expectations going forward prior to rah a big zero. the entire staff from ground crew to ceo should have been expecting to doll up their resume's. Maybe a more accurate word should be career entitlements?

What does that matter, we are not talking about routes. There are about 10 different regionals out there flying mainline routes. None of them are flying mainline airplanes with regional pilots like rah is.

Tell our union how to do it. It isn't up to the 3 or 4 line pilots who come on here that don't even fly the 190 to start some sort of job action. Plenty of people have told the union not to fly the planes and they don't see how that would be possible without some sort of illegal job action. But I haven't looked into it to deeply because I haven't ever been on a Midwest plane more or less flown one. Im in the 145 and I have no interest to be in a Midwest 190. I would like to ask why the guys that bid into it did but Im sure they have some reason that they have validated in their mind. I hope that once is all said and done the Midwest guys get fences around the 190 in MKE until their guys are called back. Or at least I used to feel that way until people started calling me and my coworkers "virtual scabs". Now I don't really care to much.
