If you guys approve a grossly concessionary contract to "save your jobs for a few months" don't come to us looking for recommendations when you finally get cut off. I'd rather recommend a GoJetZZZZ pilot.

And I wouldn't ask an ASA lifer such as urself for such a worthless recommendation. Ever fall off your high horse? Loooong way down!

Lifer. Bahahahahaha. I guess 12 years IS a lifer to someone with just a couple of years in the industry. I really hope you vote no, junior.

At least Delta is consistent. They know that forcing a contract to a pilot group under duress works.

Pinnacle pilots, listen! IT WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH. If you give anything to them now, they will keep coming back for more. I can guarantee it.

They will figure out a way to send any "promises'' of future airframes elsewhere. If one of the Delta executives that was helping in facilitating a deal was Don Bornwh0rst, you should expect the polar opposite of what he says or promises or guarantees to occur.

I have no business in the juvenile exchange between you guys but 12 years at a regional IS a very long time.

Who cares if another pilot works at a company for 3, 5, 10, 20, 30 years...what do you care?

Not only that but the industry stalled out for a good 5 years. So 12 - 5 = 7. Not a very not time if you look back at history and how long the average captain has been at a regional. Not everyone is lucky with their timing.

Looks like your the guy who needs some engrish lessons.

It's interesting how many people are ready to "burn it down" without even reading what is the TA. I wished I was in a financial place to say burn it down too, but I guess I will just try to be rational .

Something an old wise man told me(my dad now passed on). "It's always easier
to find a job when you have a job"

Who would vote yes to this BS offer? Practically everyone at PNCL now will be fired or become an FO at a lousy pay scale. Apply to express jet or someone now, and vote it down. They are not looking out for you, they are looking out for their own senior butts, and need you to keep them afloat. The writing is on the wall, this will not save the airline. Last time someone shrank to profitability, well.. You know how that went. 900s or not.
