Delta has explicitly said they will not require RAH to give up either of their contracts with AA or United. Pretty sure they even passed this along to the Endeavor MEC.
Just because it happened in the past, doesn't mean it is relevant or will happen in this case, no matter how much some wish it to be so.

They had other options for the financing. Why do you think almost all objections were dropped?

Wait what did we do? Try to fight for a better contract? Let me know next time you're up for one and you demand and get one on your terms. I'm glad that appears to be one-sided to you.
What I am irritated at is the salivation by the vultures on this board who seem to have no regard for others lives or families at the expense of a seniority number. Flying moves around. It happens. Show some respect is all I ask.

What did you do?
You and many others went to work for BB while the pilots that already worked for him were telling everyone not to come there because they had been trying to get a fair contract for 7 years, with no leverage as long as BB could keep getting new meat in the seats.

To get upset that similar circumstances are now happening at RAH is just pure comedy.
The reason why it is happening is because RAH was in large part, responsible for setting this all in motion. Wake up.
That may very well be true. I was not around then. I hardly think I would resort to these low rent tactics of belittling peers who could just have easily found themselves in a similar or more dire situation. This may be an anonymous board, but conducting ourselves like children in any environment should not be tolerated given the responsibility given to us on a daily basis. Aquaticus, this is not directed at you. I also realize this is likely falling on many deaf ears.
So when you complain about others "stealing" "your flying", put all of this in context when you wonder why some of them may not be feeling the sympathy for you, that you think you deserve.

History, it's a funny thing. You can't ignore it. The reason why we are at, where we are at, is in part because of what RAH did to XJT, as well as others regionals affecting other established regoinals (ACA, Comair, Eagle, Horizon, etc. all being attacked in the race to go cheaper).

No excuse. Good people lost their livelihoods and lives during XJT furlough. Some of them would not have been doing what they were doing when they died had it not been for the furlough (at least one died during a construction accident that he would not have been doing otherwise). Divorces led on by the financial struggles and I believe at least one suicide as well.

Where did I complain about others "stealing" "our flying"? I said I was not around then, and that I have not been part of these vultures try to capitalize on a company going through a difficult time. You seem to be taking that quite personally. I have said it before and I suppose I will again. Flying moves around. None of it is owned at the regional level. A little compassion goes a long way. I cannot and will not answer for those that paraded for flying lost at XJT. I think that is just as wrong.

You went to an airline, and helped staff it, that came in and replaced those pilots for cheaper. That is why it is happening at RAH now. That is why it is hard to feel sorry for you when you complain about what is happening.
