There ya go!

Your airline won't have to vote in even lower wages because of those spineless and selfish Pinnacle pilots.

Go live happily ever after.

Actually that was the whole reason behind my post. US Air has approached American Eagle saying they think were to expensive and would like us to be inline with "pinnacle costs" by 2015.

So basically because Pinnacle has now set the bar even lower than gojet mainlines are coming back after their regionals wanting even lower costs.

The Comair closure was 11-12 years in the making.

Everyone knows they are only bluffing.

O who?? Oklahoma chokes so much they win the Heimlich trophy every year. And when they strike a pose in the end zone, Desmond Howard style, they put their hands around their neck for style points.

The reason it's so windy in Oklahoma is because Texas sucks and Kansas blows.
