I'll start. Can we please get a Chicago over a Dulles... either of those over CAE... or is there another base hiding in the weeds?
 
Valdosta will be the most likely candidate for a new pilot base. Overall costs for crew room, MX facilities reportedly very low with the newest bidding results.
C****** T*** VP of Flight Ops was very encouraged by the latest results told himself to keep up the great work.

Rumor has it ABY is a very likely candidate. Heard from a very reliable source at the Merry Acres who said that they will facilitate the operations.
 
I thought you would want LA...You living in Denver now?

You know better than that! Denver is the easiest to commute to from where I live. LA isn't bad either, as long as those scheds we had when we were based there never resurface!! The scheds sucked, but the flying was great!

Trojan
 
wow it's funny,

UAL puts out an RFP for 56 planes, ASA/SKW gets awarded 14, and everyone starts talking about what new bases...
 
BHM would be the ideal base as SKYW already goes into there from ORD. Or even MGM with all the 'empty' ramp space. Either one, BHM or MGM, would be great so that fans of college football could experience the great football that comes out of Alabama, especially my friend condom, I mean trojan! I can just see Trojan changing his college loyalities once he experiences Alabama football while being based at BHM! :beer:

Hoser
Roll Tide!

ps hey trojan Bama needs to borrow that TE of yours! Man what a beast! :D I'll even buy ya your first Bama T & hat Tojan!

If the new base is in Alabama, the company paid moving expenses should cover moving the entire trailer and the camero....

Trojan is spelled **T-R-O-J-A-N**. You can pluralize it as well...You have to add an "S" at the back. The prophylactic you're referring to is spelled T-r-o-j-e-n-z. Big difference. I can understand, however, because living in Alabama, school is not only discouraged, but an outright threat to the State's legislature. Once you learn how to read, instead of watching WrestleMania, you'll figure it out. Good luck, and change that spaghetti stained "wife-beater."

This week's Mailbag on SI, Stewie Mandel has the Tide and the TrojANS in the the NC game. Dam that would be too awesome!

So if ASA opens a base in BHM, you gonna move that Trailor West? Can you afford a long trip like ATL-BHM in said Camaro?

ps. Anthony Mccoy. We 2 more just like him on the depth chart!

Already in these here parts T-R-O-J-A-N! 30' from the aerodrome. If the base comes here, me gonna be the CP! :eek:

Tell you what, I don't think anyone wants to play USC in the 'game', especially in their backyard (Pasadena). But if Bama makes it outa the SEC, I think it'd be one of the best games ever, and a great challenge for Bama. It may be FL/SCal too, still would be a great game.

Just remember, Bama is already up 5-2 against SCal!

You have lots of time in the chief pilots office...You should be good at it..:laugh:
 
Yall are all wrong. I had a friend whose girlfriends mothers cousins great-grandmother heard SH in rgt say it would most likely be DFW because our old crew lounge is still vacant.

Just whats going around i guess.
 
It would seem that having outstation basing would be a good option. Just don't know if the company will ever look into that option. But, if PBS is in place that could be a realistic option given that the system could select trips that begin and end in a certain city. Pilots would take a per diem hit but at least be home more.
 
Omg Omg Omg....I just got off the phone with Had Brolt and he told me Montreal is already confirmed as our next domicile.:smash:
 
Nah you are all wrong!!! It's gonna be SLC again for 6 months then switch to LAX for another couple months then who knows!
 
Just between us, SH was in recurrent and he said "don't tell the lawyers I let you in on it, but it's gonna be Guam."

-Just watch real estate go through the roof down there.
