These idiots are Comairs GOJETS. They really, really got a bad case of shiny new jet syndrome and voted in a contract with the expressed intention of under cutting us after we won our contract with an 89 day strike.
I consider these guys scab-minus-one. Not quite, but real close.
What a bunch of fools. All my FO'S want to shoot them the finger every time we pass them in CVG. Ok, ok, me too, but we refrain.
Apples to oranges comparison. Comair struck and signed a new contract PRIOR to 9/11. Chautauqua was the first regional carrier to sign a new contract POST 9/11. They also had to fight off an alter ego carrier threat during that negotiation. Slightly different environment to negotiate in.
You should educate yourself before you rant.
