Now who is making stuff up? Midwest had 180million in cash once TPG came in. They systematically syphoned off the cash, sold the MD80's and gave back the 717's because that's what Bedford/TPG wanted.

I guess our careers are an "Oh well" to these people. Nice to know.

Once again, you cannot provide proof of this and therefore this statement holds NO water. Midwest was making money.

I can't believe the numbers posted looks like 50 seat pay to me. I wish you guys get a clue. Race to the bottom is right.

This is not true.

Midwest stopped flying MD80 that were fully paid off. Why?

Midwest stopped flying B717 that had lower monthly leases than the E170. Why?

BB and TPG have said Midwest is making money in 2009. TPG found a partner in Republic to grow a 100 seat airline with E190... cheaper crew costs. Delta wants a low cost 100 seat airline to feed Delta and compete with AirTran.

Teamsters has failed your pilot group on this one.

Heres a fact: YOU ARE FLYING A MAINLINE SIZED AIRPLANE FOR A LIVING. 100 seats or 99 seats in your case should not be flown for those pay rates EVER.... not in the interim between contracts, not because you like the airplane or even because you like the company. Your company blatantly whipshawed a pilot group and put them on the street so you guys could come in and make 40 grand a year while they were making 80+ for similar sized equipment.... How is this good for anyone?

It's good for the 300+ pilots at Republic (CHQ 50 seat equipment) who were going to be furloughed. Republic pilots have undermined Midwest pilot negotiations, delay integration talks and undermined the future of our profession to keep a $27,000 per year job. Then, with the profession watching, the EXCO offers a ridiculous LOA for industry low E190 first officer pay.

And they don't want to be called scabs.

Do not hire Republic Pilots

LOL LOL LOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jet blue 190 FO pay at 8years 90.00 and Capt pay 8years 134.00. If it was funny RAH pilots would be the laughing stock of the airline industry. Silly cats don't even get half of the JB boys. RAH has millions on hand to buy airlines and they tell you thats all we can afford to pay you. HA. The new MESA.

So how far are you guys from a new contract and what are you doing to speed that up?

Who came up with these rates?
