AAG/Envoy

[begsby]

Why doesn't ALPA file a single carrier with the NMB on the regional airlines under AAG? At least get a few airlines together and stop the whipsaw.

Just put them at mainline.

Put all the regional pilots at mainline. That is the way it should have been and should be.

Cheers,

Doesn't work that way.

Search NMB, single transportation system.

It's going to be an alter ego company all over again. Piedmont or Envoy pilots can transfer in if they choose to.

Why???

Eagle is offering $10k sucker bonuses, but out of 25 new hires, only about 5 are showing up for class.

Any word from the piedmont guys on the big meeting back on the 6th?

Again, how will the new carrier get the pilots to fly them.

Just shove the airplanes to an airline with a glut of 50 seaters and no real plans past 2015. Air Wisconsin?

Granted they'd need to spool up a 175 program.

Nothing came about. Doesn't matter because if you offer crap to fly them well then it's crap that you'll find to fly them.

And they're running out of crappy people that are willing to fly them. Craps gotta give soon.

The big wigs met with the Union to see how much they would bend over before considering any offers.

It's possible, but the flying starts 8 months from now, and every month that goes by is another month XJT is behind on E-175 certification.

Yea, By about 10 years and 3 company name changes ago
