Boom. Truth.

DCA has been shrinking at RAH for some time now. Your second option is pointing is the right direction. An NYC area base is heavily anticipated at RAH, and all signs are pointing to ops being redirected there. We've have auditors at JFK since early fall preparing for it.

Lol... Take your membership and shove it up your a$$!! I hope your AWAC friends take a swing at you with the crash ax. Tool of the day nominee right here!

It's a step in the wrong direction. Piedmont's increase came at envoys expense. Flying went to a lesser paying airline. Same planes. Less pay.

Look at the bright side! Envoy gets 175's with less pay. Your comparison is flawed.

LOL. Nope, they all know why we did what we did and don't blame us one bit. Choose not to know the whole story of how we were leveraged into that deal is on you. I really don't care sweetheart

The funny thing is without AWACS loan to us airways in bankruptcy who knows where pdt would even be if awac had not loan them the $$$.

Bringing the flying "in-house" is better? Sure if you mean being paid much less to do the same thing then yes that's good for you bud. Good for all of us!
