Wow. That's simply amazing.

Now just imagine what you'd pull at a major while keeping the side business.

Dude, are you too good to be conceited???

I’m acting like a typical entitled mainline pilot. Is that a problem?

You seriously have no idea about what you're talking about. I can't argue with stupid, because you'll bring me down to your level and beat me with experience.

You’re not. You’re acting like the idiot you are. Dumb Idiot.

Entitled? This thread is about scope. Yes, I feel “Entitled” to my company’s flying. If you would like some of that flying, get a job here.
Quit being some whining wannabe that somehow feels entitled to flying that you only get from undercutting someone else.

United owns our airline, we are entitled to the new E175s United bought for us that you will not see at mainline. United will be better off reducing SNB (up to 150 a/c at mainline), in favor of a much lower cost structure. When the economy turns south, you have two choices. Full pay until the last day, or face the truth that scope restrictions need to be adjusted to Kirby's demands. Kirby knows how to win.

LOL....trololololo

Do you know what else happens in situations similar to that....The mainline carrier is allowed to renegotiate their regional contracts. Which they can and will do. So all that cushy 175 flying now goes to the cheapest bidder.

I'm sure there are more than a few pilots at mainline now, that were sitting pretty at some high end regionals the last time that happened.

Maybe you can ask some of the AWAC or ACA guys how that worked out....

So much for that entitlement huh?

Oh boy. Where to begin. Kirby disciple? Lower cost structure? Race to the bottom any one? I'm sure we all would be willing to give up our pay and work rules to save the A-plan too. How'd that work out?

In a race to the bottom, no one wins. Especially the consumer. Lower standards, less qualifications, less experience, poor quality of product. Lowest cost doesn't mean cost effective.
