EMB175 Coming to A-Tech … a carrot on a stick?

[homerjdispatch]

Its in SGU at OO headquarters today... If they wanted to show it to OO pilots SGU IS NOT the place... Its just a sales tour.

Pilots don't buy airliners, office pogues do....

We'll find out soon enough when flying is announced by whoever wins it. According to the conference call management stated they didn't expect to win 100% of the RFPs, and that there is still flying for hundreds of aircraft up for bid, that they actively in negotiations and that Inc's position is "very good"

It doesn't matter if it's a carrot or not. I'm willing to work with management to ensure the longevity of this company. However, I'm not going to give up a single penny in pay or scheduling, especially with two of EVERYTHING at the top of the pyramid between SkyWest Airlines and ExpressJet. Just isn't happening.

10000% Correct!

Get rid of half of the directors, half of the managers, and make the remaining ones actually work. Ever been by head quarters or the hanger after lunch on a Friday, absolute ghost town!

We have a Director of internal culture, what the hell is that?

And who was the idiot that selected the MRJ?

That moron should be fired!

I checked out the E-175 on the Embraer website. I don't think I want to go back school and be responsible for this mainline plane for what- five more dollars per hour? If I could bid the -700 and avoid the -900 altogether, I would.

I heard a rumor that we're getting some planes from Russia, too.

1) Expect SkyWest Inc to but the new 175s with the new engines otherwise Jerry is not interested. 2)The MRJs is dead. The deal signed was just a ploy. Jerry had no intentions of buying them.

That was my theory. Just some maneuvering to hopefully get Embraer to offer better terms.

Does anyone think Bedford is showing off CRJ900s to RAH employees?

Looks like this a sign of why the AMR flying was lost. Mainline carriers want the E jets.

And I know someone will mention the Delta 40 900s, which was solely because the deal included returning the CRJ200s

American flying was not lost, only one small award of 43 aircraft--leaving about 257 more to go. How do you know Inc even bid on what Republic was awarded? Brad Rich mentioned in the earnings call, that there were some very specific issues in that award that favored Republic only.

As far as American awards, with the merger, there will be close to 300 aircraft in this seat range that will be allowed. NO ONE CARRIER will get it all. There are only about 2 carriers in the game that have the financial resources to play. INC is one of them. Be assured, they will not bid on any flying that they cannot make money on. Repulic has some history of bidding on flying that does not make money. That's one of the major flaws that Pinnacle made and why they failed.

Inc, (including Skywest Airlines and ExpressJet) will obtain all the business they want between American and United. But, Inc want get it all.

E-175s are in INC's future. You will see evidence in the near future.

With all due respect, OO pilots don't write the check, OO headquarters does.

INC will be purchasing these aircraft in the future. The timing is ripe--a hungry manufacturer with few orders on the book, willing to negotiate the right price; and a Corporation with an excellent financial position poised to capture abundant opportunities! It doesn't get any better than that.

We work for a Corporation that manages their business entities well. They would be successful in any business and in any industry. This is evidenced by the success they have enjoyed in the regional airline industry--one that has a high mortality rate.

I approve this message! Agreed; it's all about leverage and creating it when you can.

I don't think so at all. They've mentioned before that they don't want to throw all of their eggs in one basket.

Wait, Pinnacle failed?!? I think the plan was executed flawlessly.

When was the last time? I've been here 5 years and never saw or heard of a demo at A Tech.
