fly thru would be my guess. Let's see if scott hall chimes in. lol

Oh no, you don't see the big picture.

We will open a base in CVG and move approximately 100 pilots there. A year later we will close the base and pay for everybody to move to ATL. Then, members of senior management will claim that they never should have closed the base due to recent increases in block hours.

Well, don't forget that the company cares deeply about its employees.

How many ASA 700's rotate through CVG now?

 

[FightingIrish]

Additional 700s and progress on the contract! 2007 may be a good year for ASA! This is good to see.

 

[sweptback]

How many ASA 700's rotate through CVG now?

Zero.

 

[FightingIrish]

How many ASA 700's rotate through CVG now?

None, only 200s do.

 

[asarjfo]

Zero.

Seems that a new base would make sense.....but then again when has ASA ever made sense.

Smoke and mirrors. Management's goal right now is to keep everyone's heads spinning until it pops right off, and they can fire you for being ugly. Then, hire a
cheap ole monkey.

That statement carries more weight than most can imagine, should be announcements for some significant expansion and taking on aircraft from the DAL RFP was streaching things too thin.

I dunno CFIT, you said OO was getting all 12 of the Comair Jets. Your source is slipping....

Or, like the rest of us, he just makes stuff up and leads everybody into beliving it! :smash:

They told Skywest pilots a month ago those aircraft were going to ASA. They also told them that most of the Delta RFP flying had already being awarded to Skywest Inc. According to the Skywest guys Delta is getting rid of Mesa and they have been told that ASA is getting 30 CRJ-200's to open up a base in Orlando to replace Freedom. You heard it here first.

Just announced. Sorry Comair. It's a shame to see things like this happening.

But, NOT sorry SkyWest, you didn't deserve our 700s.

To Clarify, we are getting 8 (out of the 12) Comair CRJ 700s, and keeping 8 of the ones slated to go to SKYW.

You ungrateful bastar d. Didn't deserve your 700's. The money that I worked for bought your airline and stopped your airline from either going bankrupt or being bought by mesa. I don't want to fly "your" airplanes, but how bout a little grattitude. You don't "deserve" anything.

Yes, because your job as a pilot enabled SkyWest, Inc. to purchase ASA.

Maybe if you work a bit harder next year Jerry can buy UPS.
