ASA "town hall" prediction

[Abernathy]

And they'll jack it up to 200% again if they have to and all of the sudden everyone stops bitching and the staffing problem will never be resolved.

They buy us cheap.

 

[Medeco]

150% paid open time. So it begins.

On which plane and seat? I dont see anything...

cr2. Fo.

 

[Max Q]

Are people really stupid enough to pick some of these up?

 

[Max Q]

Is this new jet steam thing supposed to replace the ATL crew lounge town hall?

 

[777forever]

Care to elaborate? Or would you then have to kill me?......err all of us?

2nd hand source but I've heard Delta has decided to order the ATR72-600. Small order at first but the long term plan is to elimate the CR2 and replace most of the flying with the new ATR

Nevermind just got updated info. There will be big news but it won't be about ASA or SKW Inc. Turns out after all these years Pinnacle will be the place to have been. Delta has decided to go with the Q400 in reponse to fuel prices.

Makes sense to me. The new Pinnacle has a new pilot contract, a young pilot group, and most importantly costs are in line.

Cause they're spineless

Cause they're spineless

Using that logic, Southwest pilots were "spineless" when they didn't saddle their company with huge pension costs and inefficient work rules...Worked out pretty well for them in the end...

Competition is a b!tch and ALPA allowed competition, even encouraged it, within a brand....You are attacking the wrong straw man....

And they fly that Q400 for a B scale. i.e. DIRT CHEAP!

forget that, just heard. UAL not hiring because ASA is getting 737s for the IAD base. It was going to be CRJ700s but scope became and issue and not enough were available quickly enough There are a TON of 73s sitting in the desert. Since UAL doesn't operate the 73 anymore, they decided to contract it out so they don't have to reopen the program. 900!? who cares! We'll have 73s! This is the place to go SJSers!

Uh PNCL Corp Q400 pay will be higher than ASA 700 pay in 2012, not to mention the PNCL jet pay.

Interviewee got a call from ASA last week. He was told that he would do a sim eval in a 737 at the DL campus. Maybe the cr2 and cr7 sims are full at FS.....then again, maybe not...

Well, it's the 8th. Any word on the ATL crew room town hall? Were we supposed to settle with the audio recording?

Otherwise known as, we don't really give a flip about your questions or comments.
