tk855 said:I don't think they do move guys out of the Falcon or LJ unless they have the time requirements for the 9. I know they ran a posting on their company website for quite a while last year looking for DC9 FO's. The minimums for the 9 FO's were different than the LJ of Falcon. Maybe some of the Ameristar pilots will chime in with the real truth.
This isn't exactly true, Ameristar didn't have to ground them, they are choosing not to do the heavy checks until they feel the aircraft are needed. The aircraft in El Paso has a completed executive interior, it just needs paint and a heavy check so that it can go online.cherry20's said:I was under the impression that Ameristar had to ground three of there 737's.
This isn't the case anymore. Any openings on the 121 side should be offered to approved 135 captians in senority order. They have former 135 captains flying the DC-9 now as FOs, and they have offered it to 135 captains also.Ameristar funnels qualified 135 captains to the 737s instead of the DC-9s because the 737s pay is better (based on what I was told). We've had several guys move over to the 737s, but nobody has gone to the 9s..
