The reason why Eagle is in their corner is directly because of PSA. If PSA didn't set the precedence, then Eagle would not be having to take concessions to stay alive. You are directly responsible for Eagle, PDT, and who knows who else in the future having a diminished QoL and smaller paychecks.

Psa voted no twice before. In 2007 and 2011. Both times airplanes went to Mesa.

I'm pretty sure all these comments about ejets are jokes. I can't imagine a major airline caring if it was a 50 mtow or 89k mtow jet. Transport category aircraft are transport category aircraft.

They don't... A good majority of my class at a major had only E145 or CRJ2 time.
He was joking.

What was the ratio of CAs vs FOs (TPIC) in that group?

You get paid better or you work harder? You don't seem very bright, our pay rated is higher. Anyone can pick up open time and make money. Good luck getting 16-17 days off a month consistently..

By the way I make more than your captains do....ya prick
