USAIR East Pilots not alone.

I ran into a RAH FO yesterday on the crew bus. He was not happy with the award either. F9 fo's can upgrade into RAH RJ's but the RAH FO's can't touch the Bus for 7 years. Upgrade times just increased.

The whole point is that no one seems to have received a real "windfall". How is it unfair?

That said I think this Nanette has a snowball's chance in h*ll of succeeding.

None of this will matter once Hawaiian completes their buyout of the Frontier certificate and takes only the airbuses. This will happen! I demand it!!!!!!!

Who said they were the same? Not I.

You said Frontier pilots used the word mainline to "falsely inflate their position vis-a-vis RAH pilots". You obviously must not think that a "mainline" carrier has a higher "position" than a regional? Edit: I had a longer paragraph written, but this will make it easier. Is the average Republic pilot happy that they will be able to fly the Airbus without having to interview somewhere? Is the average Frontier pilot happy he can fly an RJ without having to interview somewhere? Boom, Frontier is in a higher position.

It is interesting how many mainline carriers have thought it "ok" to screw my generation and younger with the increasing acceptance of outsourcing- only fair that an outsourcing company buys a 'mainline' carrier and integrates- it's what you get when you hold a brother down, even if a younger one- it's going to hit your own pocket too, whether it's guys accepting jblu and now VA rates, putting pressure on your own wages- or this^^
I only wish that delta or united would get bought by skywest and staple the mainline- te only thing I wish more is that all pilots at both carriers would walk off the job tomorrow and not come back until a plan was in place to cancel all outsourcing contracts and have all branded flying on one list - too bad about frontier bc they were one of the least offenders-
Wish all good luck and hope the real lesson is the damage outsourcing has done to the industry

By this logic, its a "higher" position to fly a HAL 767 for $170 an hour than a SWA 737 for $196 an hour.

The only place where size matters in the airline industy is in the paycheck, my friend.

Okay, Frontier pilots make more than Republic, right?

Unlike your silly analogy, the pilots involved here work for the same company.

I'm SO glad you explained that. I was afraid that there was an expression of derision toward RAH that I had not heard of.
