Financially, were going down the s#$tter fast, loosing money by the millions, thanks to the Express jet side! Yes , I'm formally with ASA, the once profitable company.
You sure about that? You can't be because you're wrong. Losses had to do mainly with mx costs and some due to Inc. buying XJT too. But not just XJT.

Read the quarterly reports by INC. Expected to have a $30ish million dollar net profit in 2012. The ERJ is actually the more efficient there bud. Not that you have a clue though.

Really! A loss is a loss.Sure, some of it was due to the Inc. purchase and the normal growing pains that come with a merger.As a long time ASA'er, Ive seen nothing but profitability.Inc purchases a loosing company, and now were all spiraling down with you! And I do have a clue BUD! Unfortunately I can not reveal my sources but its scary how your MEC is blindly following the lead of you scheduling guru and wont even take the time to look at our PBS system in great depth which is needed to discover that it is an industry leading system.
We'll see about those net profits!
 
Ok well the net profits are predicted by Jerry Atkin, not me Mr. Lifer. Read the Inc financials once in a while and you'd know that. In there they mention mainly unexpected CRJ MX costs for the losses if I remember correctly.

Steve is a standup guy. We put together a sub committee and actually researched many new bidding systems, yours according to our union isn't going to do as good of a job as others. Did you put together a committee to research ours and others? Can I see ya'lls report? There is a big report out regarding this. I believe them. Why would a senior guy like Steve lie? He's someone everybody over here trusts. Your union can't even keep their mouth shut regarding negotiations when they are supposed to be kept confidential.

Doesn't matter. Fact is profits are predicted in 2012 by Inc. which is what I said. And fact is the ERJ operation is growing while the CRJ has shrunk. A management guy spoke to my upgrade class last month and said this is because we're more efficient than the CRJ side. But sure, keep thinking we're killing the company you numbskull.

The ERJ side is more efficient because it is larger, and hence spreads the costs over more aircraft, and more pilots. In addition (and probably more prevelant) is the MUCH longer stage length averages for the ERJ. This also reduces cycles on the airframe, gear, engines, apu, etc.
 
How much longer are the contracts on the CRJ's good for on the Delta side? Can Delta just suddenly park 200's or are they under contract for so many years?

Rest of the Delta RJs under contract til 2017 per the Skywest Inc purchase agreement

Its ironic that we have a union, yet Skywest pilots have higher W2s on avg. Even with the dreaded Brad Holt Override 700/900 pay.

If management offered a merger with Skywest in exchange for dropping the union, wonder how the vote would turn out
