Not sure how canning the e3 will help thier cause.

On another note, I hear the RTPs are getting a lot of applicants.... Perhaps express jet doesn't need any e3s.
Well the very existence of the e3 provides an avenue for the maintenance of sub standard working conditions at the regional level. There is no shortage of pilots in the US, just those willing to work for substandard conditions (take away the hiring bonuses and it’s still ****ty hrly rates). If I worked at one of these companies I’d be opposed to it too..
