MESA -200s for UAL...TOAST

[spitfire1500]

You guys on here crack me up!! Everyone giving wishful thinking reasons on how and why they're going to get everyone elses regional flying!!

They are estimating the furlough will take us down to around seniority number 860. That is down from a high of over 1500 if I remember correctly.

That includes the Dash 8 and CRJ 200 reductions. It's going to be interesting to see how we can avoid Chapter 11 with all those aircraft sitting in the desert with the meters still running.

Good luck to us all.

650 pilots..this is almost as bad as the TWA/AA merger

How everyone but ASA reads it:
What it means is...ASA will pick up some UAL flying because DAL will get rid of some ASA 200's......

How the ASAholes read it:
We have a far superior product and are soooooo great....everyone wants to hire us.

Igits.

Please don't entertain that clown.. He's not an ASA pilot.

While the situation with job losses at MAG are unfortunate...they don't hold a CANDLE to AA/TWA.

Why? A job is a job. Thats how those people feed their families. Why is there a difference? Are mainline employees a preferred class and their lives and jobs are more valuable?

Uh, no...the TWA/AA job losses were of a magnitude at least 300% greater than what Mesa is facing.

THAT is why it doesn't come close.

No they don't. People can't feed their family on a regional first officer salary alone.

 

[Fltlvls]

All the regionals have one foot on the banana peel and the other in the grave when mainline is in control..Remember that !!!..You could be next.

 

[Hobit]

All the insignificant info aside... This did become some what of an ASA thread right?!

Keep it up!
