MELIT,
The only thing that should be stapled to the end of their list is your N@d$ ; that is if you have any!
 
Can anyone indicate anything that is positive about ASA's future?

I personally am beginning to think there is a plan to really shrink ASA. They are stalling big time.

Getting back to the original question, ASA will not exist within a year. It will either be shut down and liquidated or absorbed into Skywest.

Look around at what's going on here. They fire 3/4 of our employees in ATL. They continue to stall the contract. They bring in 9 DCI carriers. Everyone but ASA gets -900s. Everyone has at least one new Delta logo plane but ASA.

Even the chief pilots are telling everyone they had better get their resumes out. ASA has no future.
 
So, any guesses what the big announcement on June 1st is going to be?
 
just a guess

ASA will be converting current CRJ200's for CRJ900's. As delivery slots get closer management will tell you that if the contract is not done, aircraft will go to SkyWest. They put the screws to you before by transfering aircraft, but the cost to do it was high. This will cost them nothing but ill will.

Hopefully the contract will be done before any more aircraft are transfered.

ASA will be shut down September 1st. All ASA assets will be transferred to Skywest. ASA pilots will be given preferential hiring at Skywest, as openings become available. ASA's ATL operations will be replaced by Skywest, Comair, Freedom, Pinnacle, Republic, Shuttle America, ExpressJet, and Delta E-190s.

The union is starting to look like the cowboy riding the bomb down in the end of Dr Strangelove.
