Wonder how fast the EtD program is gonna get laughed off by Guum and friends as another "mistep" and apologizes.

"Aww shucks guys, sorry, guess we're gonna have to keep parking because we wouldn't listen to the union, our pilots who stayed and the ones who bailed. Thanks for all you do."

Impossible, Phil Reed told the union Delta would build a statue in his likeness for "creating" the EtD.

Nope, actually got a small pay raise.

hulas doesnt do anything unless he makes money-- i def respect that-- but just as long as the pilots gets theirs

RA had his eye on compass..... Trans raveled them in to the American deal to make them less attractive to Delta..... "Its not personal, Just business.

RA couldn't wait to dump Compass (and Mesaba) and stop the flowthrough agreements.

The mec, the pilot group maybe..... But ra..... I don't think gives a ******************** about a flow though. He's a businessman. Not a preschooler that kick you in the nuts and stole the wagon on the playground. Lol

That was five years ago. The current problem Delta has is they need a reliable long term operator for the CRJ fleet. The plan they had for 9e is failing - they have to recognize it - so what is plan B? Buy ASA back and fold 9e? Is Air Whisky in the picture at the end of their US agreement in 2015? Buy TSA? Sell 9e to TSA?

It appears the SkyWest organization is trying to move away from DAL. Compass operating for two partners greatly reduces their dependence on Delta. RAH is not going to continue operating 50 seat AC for Delta after next year.

Some thing is up. There is too much smoke around Delta/ASA. If Delta was losing money on their agreement with 9e they are for sure losing money on their agreement with ASA. They want to fix that - somehow.
