It is sickening that any company would be reduced to this, and I sure hope the end isn't as near as everyone thinks. Any pilot group - especially those who have the experience, resolve, and respect that Comair pilots do - doesn't deserve to be treated with less than the utmost respect.

I thank you. But after 19 yrs. at this place, it's like having cancer and lying in a bed waiting to die - or better yet - instead of feeling helpless, and worthless, look at it as a new chapter that life throws at you. There is much more to life than living out of a roller board. In fact, the last 8 yrs at OH have been so bad (employee attitudes) , why even bother?

In the USA, it would be AA who combined American Eagle Airlines and Executive Airlines 1982.

Atlantic Coast ends its relationship with United on Aug. 3 when its flies its last flight of that day. At that time, all 87 Bombardier [BBD] CRJ 200s will be devoted to the Independence fleet and all Jetstream 41 turboprops will be retired. By Sept. 1, Independence will have completed its initial launch with 600 daily departures based at Washington Dulles International Airport to 35 destinations."
