An analyst on CNBC yesterday advised people to short SkyWest and Republic because of the new hiring rules and fatigue rules and how they will affect future earnings. I have a few friends at Republic and they have stated similar numbers at newhire classes, in the single digits, show up. The Regional Airlines are going to have to give out retention bonuses or sign up bonuses to attract anyone. One of the guys I know at Republic said he got a referral fee for referring a friend, and it was something like $500 for the E170/75 and $1000 for the Dash-8-400. Those guys at Republic need a new contract regardless.
Bye Bye---General Lee
You have friends?
