I don't get it, you are implying Pinnacle is owned by Delta. Shrinking the heck out of 9E will kill it, smaller is not better and there is no endless piggy bank like Comair has with Delta. Can you explain what kind of debt 9E has?

Ya I wasn't concerned until menkles specfically brought up the ISL as being a problem rather than 11-09. Alarm bells are ringing, I'd certainly try to void the ISL in bk and shutdown 9L if I was him, would save a fortune versus doing it ethically.

Does Delta's release of news of a good profit in 2011 have any bearing on the Pinnacle situation? I don't have the link because I am using my mobile, but the report is on atwonline.com.

Anyone who thinks this 5% pay cut will have ANY bearing on what happens in the near and / or distant future of pinnacle is ill-informed and uneducated about the industry for which they work. NEVER in the history of the regional airline Buisness has a pilot group saved a company or recovered the money they lost by conceding!

Vote yes, seek therapy, and develop a plan B for you and your family or...
Vote no and develop a plan B for you and your family...
Plan B saves you much needed money on therapy and would be my choice!

I can see the 9e 900s going away because skywest could pick up that flying with their spares, but I think Unitacon is hust playing hardball. I don't know why they would leave it up to a bk judge and I don't see them wanting to lose 30 planes. What would it take for someone else to fly the Q's? No one is hiring enough that already flies the dash. If it does happen I'd think it would take a while for them all to disapear.

Why is it then, United is in abig hurry to get the Q refitted for 1st class accommodations? To the point where they're paying to lease additional aircraft in order to speed up the process. Just doesn't make sense if Unicon, is looking to dump the Q. :-/
