Yeh, I think this was a pilot "ask" oh, about a decade ago. Seems the "divide 'n' conquer" strategy isn't so smart in the hindsight. How many group pilots have been given great training & experience & then lost to competitors over the years?
The penny may have actually dropped - though it will never be admitted, experienced & well trained pilots are actually an asset, not a liability to an airline.
