The "magic 100-seater" will be flown by the outfit that can do it most efficiently. One could argue that "the contract says." I don't place much value in them anymore. Seems both CEOs and pilots (USAPA) will try anything to break a promise.

In the end, economics will win out over rhetoric, false security and wishful thinking.

Ummmmmm, no. Anything over 76 seats will be flown by mainline, via the contract. 76 seaters are capped at a particular number, along with 70 seaters. These days 50 seaters can't cover gas prices, which means 70 and 76 seaters will cover for them, and 88 717s will fill in for 76 seaters. That magical "100 seater" was filled perfectly by the 717, at a discount price and paid for by SWA ($100 million refurb). That plan was executed well, and will lead to many newhires.

It's so funny. .I've been coming back to this forum every so often for the past 5 years and to find Genny is still blabbing about the same $hit in the Regional forums. Its quite rediculous for the time he wastes here, while he could be out enjoying his international layovers at those exotic places. You're like one of those tools inside of a tool. Get out and enjoy life and take a break from this Forum.
 
All you need to know about General Lee summed up in his/her own words...

"Scope is HUGE and we won't budge. We have at least 51% that would vote NO on any increase in size of RJ for DCI.

Bye Bye--General Lee"

General Lee circa 2006/07 on Delta's bankruptcy contract expanding scope to 76 seaters.

Who says I didn't post that at night after a great night on the town in Europe? I guess I have to be wasted before I go on a flight the next morning? No, I checked in on FI, because I enjoy it. You need to try to come up with something of substance, because you obviously can't when you check in every few years. Instead, just go away. All you bring are slams because you cannot debate the issues.

So, how did the scope turn out? I think scope is a lot better today than it was back in 2006/7. Looks like the correct path was taken. It was only a matter of time to see how inefficient RJs are, especially with high gas prices. Those 70 and 76 seaters will now cover for outgoing 50 seaters, and 88 717s now take over for the 76 seaters. Mainline will recapture scope using them. What a great story. Data, your argument doesn't look at the whole picture. Take a look around you. And those 717s will lead to mainline hiring. Great night!

Thanks Box Office, who says she is a DL pilot but only hangs out in the ASA threads. Riiiight. Yeah, she knows from an anonymous website who is, and is not, at a particular airline.....she sounds like a pure genius, NOT...

And then there is PBR, on the "stalking" roll because she can't come up with anything original, and somehow thinks that might be funny. Well, the webmaster on here didn't think so. Sorry PBR, next time come up original material that has staying power, like why RJs are continuing to be parked due to economic reasons. You only get lost in discussions about that. Call up Box Office and try to come up with something.

Happy New Year freaks!

Freaks,
Says the presence with almost 17K posts. How is your rubber blow up Mrs Lee? Did your mom(Mrs Wolowitz) do a brisket up this holiday season and bring a platter down to your basement apartment?
I bet your stalker is making sure of your ID so he doesn't go postal on the wrong goober.
Think you are immune, maybe, but there is always a first for everything, you included.

WOW, how dramatic! You win the Academy Award for best dramedy! A dramatic comedy, which you are good at. I actually PMed him and he said YOU are the one at fault. I agreed with him. Good luck! Btw, you still have zero posts that make any sense. You and Data must be bros....

Did you post that after "a night on the town"? Did you PM your stalker and admonish him that his rifle and scope choice was less than optimal too? Does your mom have "instructions" to not allow anyone who is "not your friend" down to your "apartment" in the basement? I guess you will have a total of 0.00, visitors. But hey, at least you get "Best Stay at Home Son" award from your mom again, just for taking her to the Golden Corral buffet!
BaaaaHaaaa
