But I'm not gonna convince anyone to leave...less competition for me.

XJT-'East' has what, 2,000 pilots that are slowly being bled out? My last few times up front on PSA the FO's were all former XJT. I would expect as they retire more aircraft guys will continue to jump ship. So far AA has been pretty effective at convincing those guys to jump over to their WO'd carriers. I'm sure Republic is next and that's why they wanted the high first year pay.

My point was to challenge certain people (the burn baby burn crowd ). Challenge them to "take the money and run". IOW, if they hate RAH so much, "take the money and run". Me? I'm a lifer, I've accepted it. My life doesn't revolve around aviation. I make my money elsewhere; this is insurance, stability etc.
If i hated RAH like them, I'd be gone.

Whether or not they restructure has less to do with the new contract and more to do with the willingness of their partners coming to an agreement outside of the BK process.
They're definitely not out of the woods yet.
