Hah, I knew this discussion wouldn't go without a Lawson reference.
You're talking about the the lowly MEC man who, with just the stroke of a pen, brought thousands of pilots to their knees. That man wields some power, I must say. I sure hope it is bright for you. Sitting in the right seat for 20 years doesn't entice me, however. |

I think that's the point we're talking about in the first place (what DALPA could and should have done).
I'm astounded that you think mainline pilots should have given up anything to further a DCI company's viability. |

Contrary to what you believe, the future does look bright. I hope you have a chance to become a Mainline pilot one day. You will see what I mean. Fly safe.

I don't know of any Delta/NWA pilot who has involuntarily sat in the right seat for 20 years.

What if that right seat pays 50% more than a topped out regional captain? (because it does)

Pay isn't everything. And all that would mean is that there is no movement. Not a place I would want to be, personal preference.

I think we need to stop blaming Delta pilots and DALPA. They fought for what was best for their company just like we and 9e have to fight for what we feel is best for us. I really do not give a crap about what it does to the other regionals. Delta management and 9e management screwed this company over. 9e management did some very careless things in the past, and continue to waste money and Delta forced 9e to buy XJ when skywest had a bid to buy XJ. And then Delta pulled down 13%(Number might be off i am having a brain fart) of our flying this year which caused a huge cash flow problem.
