OK, then just travel on Air Tran, ASA, Skywest, Allegiant, and (really?) Sun Country. Problem solved.

Do you have a small penis?

Ergo, you'd be one of us who completely rejects the current scope situation and not one who constantly wants to defend career RJ guys?
If there has been "two HUGE legacy hiring eras", why do you guys keep complaining about your loss of jobs to the regionals...After all there has been "two HUGE hiring eras"....Sounds like you guys shouldn't be complaining about the loss of jobs after all....

Could have been huge-er. (that's what she said)

Now we've got these jumbo RJ's flying around with captains making 40% less than our narrowbody captains which make another 40% less than they should be making.

Ya'll aren't helping raise the bar....

Clamp,

If you can't see the wing tips how would the captain know there wasn't enough clearance? Experience?

You are correct sir. The Boston paper said Comair but it was ASA. Tail N132EV.

They nuked it already earlier today. Too freaking funny to let go of yet, though.
