Careful Frontier pilots, looking long term, Mgmt may decide to purchase 319's for the Lynx (alter ego) certificate, pursue DOT certification and get approval.
To me, this is the biggest fear and really the only threat to Frontier pilots. So are the Frontier pilots fighting to prevent this kind of thing from happening? If the folks at the GO fight this at all, then there is probably cause to worry, but if they don't then you know they aren't out to eventually replace you guys.
I remember when the order happened that they said they are only looking to fly these things as far as a 700 mile ring around Denver not 1200 or whatever. Is there any way that the pilots can make Frontier agree that Lynx will never fly any aircraft larger than this and they can not fly to any current F9 mainline cities? Maybe a limitiation that they can only fly to cities that have a population of a certain amount (small cities)?
I would think this needs to be something that is talked about quickly or Frontier pilots may miss out. I am also willing to be that F9 management would agree to something like this without putting up much of a fight.
