Way too easy. It is like picking on a kid in a wheelchair.

But we all have leverage now. That's the difference.
Wait, I thought "being owned by Delta makes all the difference"?

That's what the flight school lady said as she handed me my loan paperwork...

I am confuse.

Yea, I was thinking that myself when I first read the Comair news. When I was a kid, there was always a copy of Flying magazine at the barber shop and I always saw that ad. BARF

Amended to read:

"Being PWNED by Delta makes all the difference!"

See, now everyone is equal!

How else do you expect your pilots to feel? Most regionals have been getting raises and/or being paid more than 9E guys to do the same work.

And don't blame it on management.....I don't know of any management gourps out there that look forward to giving everyone raises.

You forgot Skywest. You know they LOVE to give out small raises to keep the unions away.
