I've had it with taking punches for everyone else.
If amount else out there had what happened to PSA or PDT happen to them they would have voted in a contract, too. It's just the usual internet tough guys throwing out the SCAB word at every opportunity, and talk is cheap and easy when you're not the ones with the gun to your head.
I never called any of the PSA/PDT bunch SCABs, but damn, signing contracts knowing other work groups in your airline will be forced to take concessions to realize the contract and that by signing your contract you will be taking another regional's aircraft, that's awful.
If this TA had failed and over 2-3 years time PSA's and PDT's aircraft had been parceled out and delivered to other carriers, not a single one of them would have said no. More likely it would have been cheers at the upgrades and new flying it offers.
PSA and PDT would have been forgotten in a couple years.

Anyways welcome to the party under Dougie. Don't worry it'll hurt less and less as time goes by. Who knows, maybe PSA would've voted yes by 75% if they threw $12,500 at us too.

There you have it folks! You just witnessed the result of a WIPSAW! Still going strong even during a massive pilot shortage. Go Jet at one time, then Endeavor,PSA, and now Envoy. Its like a game of Limbo. How low can you go!!

Envoy: another loser pilot group, just like PSA. Enjoy those new "regional jets" and your pay freeze concessionary contract.
