Pinnacle's Delta Numbers!!!!

[machaf]

If they were making some sweet coin on those things I don't think anyone would want to see them lose the flying. As a former ASA guy you should know what it feels like to get low balled by another carrier willing to work in your back yard for cheaper. That's exactly what Pinnacle has done, and it's flaunted in our face everyday right in front of our freakin crew lounge.

So, how is that the Pinnacle pilots fault? You're intellectually broke buddy.

You might have a point or reason to rag on Pinnacle Pilots is they accepted management worthless proposal for the 900 rates, but they did not.
Quit hating the pilot group and start hating on management.

Delta doesn't care about Pinnacles numbers right now, good lord they only have 5 or 6 aircraft. Wait until they get all 16 and by then their numbers will be better than ASA's. I regret walking with you guys in Atlanta, you're all a bunch of Riddle tool bags!

Another ignorant soul using flight info as his/her main source of how the majority think or view you.

Think what ya want man. From the standpoint of an ASA guy (now I'm not speaking for everyone here) Pinnacle is just another low ball carrier flying planes that not too long ago would have been flown by ASA pilots. $hit happens and things change, I understand that. But like I said before, we just need some good news in this joint, and you goobers flying the 900's in ATL just aint good news for us!

Take your statements and imagine yourself in a Delta pilot's shoes looking at ASA's planes. I wonder if he would see you as a low ball goober that's just not good news for him.

Delta pilots didn't want our planes. Remember???? They were too good to fly regional jets and caved in on the scope. Now the whole damn industry is out of whack and jacked up. I hope once the dust settles, the mainlines realize the error of their ways, and make the regionals true regionals again. But until that happens, I'm just along for the ride in this big mess of an industry.

Most PCL pilots don't want those planes either. I agree with you about the future though...hopefully the next changes in scope clauses are for the better

Could you clarify your position on "better"....How would you envision any changes?

Better = less big RJs being flown by you

Better = less big RJs being flown by you

That's what I figured....just want to hear SaturnPilot's vision for "better".....We can work TOGETHER or SEPARATELY on this issue...Your choice.....

The conflict of interest continues....Time to pour some more gas on the fire.....

well, there is going to be a push to reclaim some of the scope limits lost in the latest round. Realistically, I could see no more 70 and/or 90 seaters allowed than currently on property and possibly taking some of them back.

Who knows...
