You obviously have no idea how these things go down...

No he/she does not.

It's either willful ignorance or good old fashioned trolling.

Either way, he/she/it is best ignored.

Perhaps you're right and we will be again in the future. But you're a tool today and you're advertising it. Weird.

That doesn’t bode well for your company, either.

From what I recall, you didn’t get through the CPP screening when you tried, you’ve been outspoken and biter against anything United since, and you still fly an aging 50 seat jet for a company that is totally dependent on an airline that you seem to hate. I sure wouldn’t trade my position for yours.

You do realize that the 'regional problem' helps support your own pay scales at a higher level than they'd be if the regionals didn't exist?

And in the throes of this virus chaos, the last thing any CEO is going to do, is try to increase the cost of labor? Which is exactly what would happen if the regionals shut down.

Not saying I like the system. Just calling it how I see it. But, since we're just a couple quarters away from going feral and living off the land, it's not like much of this matters anymore.

He’s too good of a pilot for United, remember?
