Let's not get all cocky and start crap with anybody.. Nobody wants to see any airline get flying or airplanes taken away from their airline. Either Envoy or XJT.
In all fairness, no one is being cocky. I feel really bad for both Envoy and Expressjet but Saabs is right. There was no concessions taken by TSA pilots to get this flying. In fact, the beginning part of this decade, the TSA pilot group greatly improved their contract. What would you like the TSA pilots to do? Strike? Quit? What's your end game?
The title doesn't say TSA is getting them from Envoy at the expense of Envoy pilots.
Every regional gets airplanes at the expense of another regionals' pilots. TSA didn't take concessions to get them so it's just another case of AAG screwing Envoy, not TSA screwing Envoy.

That's because Envoy said it is because of its inability to staff. People, understandably, are bailing out of there. TSA took no concessions to get this flying.

I am a tsa pilot.. I'm saying let's be happy for the growth but not start talking crap about people loosing planes.. The title of this thread could be viewed as a bit cocky..

This is why I think it would be a good idea for our MEC to get the company to give hiring priority to ExpressJet and Envoy pilots that want to come here as CQFOs or FOs for those that are not CQFO qualified.
