AQ 717s?

I think you are on to something. I have a friend that works with Burt Ratan and he said he saw Zander and Branson having dinner with Burt.

ok.. enuff of the bs.. here is something that is true, from a very credible source...

z-man and branson have been meeting, as was previously reported in their sightings. they are working out a deal to have branson take over, get rid of the 737s and transform aloha into virgin galactic. branson wants those 100 extra pilots on asap because of the overwhelming responses he's received about getting on those flights.

Dr Evil said, "riiiight".

I saw a box of Air Snuffaluffagus t-shirts in an odd looking box in Flight Ops the other day. I think you might be on to something!

Talked to my friend again. He said Burt said Hawaii is out, real estate is way too expensive there, they are looking at New Mexico now.

In other news, I talked with a bud that was at the retirement party last night. He said he overheard a conversation with AQ VP, VP said the EMB190 looks like a very attractive deal. Someone asked about the 717. He said Boeing offered a good price but there is a lot more involved than the price of the airplane. They are worried about the fact that Boeing will stop production and the cost of parts, etc.

Get ready for a paycut

I guess whatever plane they decide on, new pay rates will have to be negoiated.
