Looks like the q400s are going to another United operator.....

It is amazing that people are talking about fence issues, 4.5 years down the road, when this company could (probably) be stripped to nothing.
Bigger problems ahead for this airline, not just about old airline vs old airline

I hate to agree with anyone...ever.... while I am not in support of an out of seniority furlough, how is this any less fair than an out of longevity furlough?? I don't see how anyone can support anything other than date of hire across the board. Its going to be a long road for us all.

Exactly. Also keep in mind the creditors committee does not have to follow management's plan. They can come up with one of their own, or accept a competing bid from the outside. For the creditors it is all about getting as much of their money back as they can....
The fact that we had to go begging to Mother Delta for a loan because no bank would lend us any money does not bode well for our future.....
