Brad came over to ASA with the Skywest philosophy. I don't believe he'll furlough anybody unless there is no other option.
Anyone who thinks there is TRUE "brotherhood" in this business.....isn't paying attention.....
USAPA/AWA/AAA, DAL/NWA, AA/TWA, Regional vs. Mainline, Age 60 pro/con, saving retirement vs. furlough, senior vs. junior, and the General vs everyone.......
APC says SKYW is to receive 9 more 900's starting Oct. 25th. If they want to keep the ASA people happy and moral where it is, they should just let us have those planes in ATL. We have the pilots, and the program is all but certified. Pilots could be in the planes within 2 weeks. It would definitely help with the "surplus".
I'm sure the responses to this could get interesting...
Well, nothing 'interesting' here, but I think it was anounced over a year ago that those 900's are E120 replacements. You know, fwiw.
I mean, don't get me wrong here--SKW isn't running any jet classes right now, so it's effectively a transfer of flying away from EMB crews. So at least in the very short term, I'd be just as happy to see those 900s go to ASA.
(But in the long term, I'm a lot smarter than that.)

Skywest recently had all the pilots and flight attendants complete overwater training and what 900s we have, are now all outfitted with Caribbean flying performance and info cards in the airplanes but nothing officially announced by the company.
ASA's been doing that on our 700's for years now. I wouldn't read too much into that...
