Midwest Pilots

[airlinepilot]

Any Midwest guys and gals that have answers to the following questions:

1. How many of you were flying the line (not on furlough) when RUH took over

2. How many of you that were on the line are flying now?

3. How were your incorporated into the SL at RUH?

Just curious because I have heard various reports....

What is RUH? If you are referring to Republic Airways Holdings please see below for acceptable abbreviations...

RPA
RJET
RAH
RP

The R's all have to do with replacement. No airline has replaced more pilots then Republic. The windfall Republic pilots have gained the last few years come at the expense of many seasoned real jobs at real carriers. Repulic is a disgrace.

MCDOOSH..The republic pilots have nothing to do with who their company chooses to buy....I could easily become one of those 'seasoned' pilots to lose their jobs. But if that happens, it will not be because Republic pilots deliberately took it.

Sorry I have to agree with "mcdoosh." When is the last time you heard a republic pilot say anything about all the experienced pilots their company has put on the street. Have you heard even one say "maybe this isn't right" NO They think it's their right!

No, what they are doing is being noticeably silent when it is good for them. We all do it. Somewhere it needs to stop.

Since you are a FLIGHT ATTENDANT, how do you know so much about all the airlines of the world and all their problems.

Maybe....

Maybe.... but they really missed their chance when the company announced that RAH would be taking half their flying in the near future, the WHOLE group should have said "over our striking body" and see if RAH was ready to step in and fly the whole schedule on day one. Instead, the senior guys facilitated an orderly transfer of flying from Midwest to RAH for what... an extra 6 months of salary. Sooooo short sighted......

Here it is... RAH is prohibited to fly struck work by not only their own decency, but it's in our contract as well. If they struck we no worky... That didn't happen however.
