Future Prospects Ahead for Legacy ASA

[amcnd]

ASA's MO is to book all the available CRJ sim time in the Western Hemisphere thus blocking GoJets from training their crews......INGENIOUS!

Or they need the sim time to "dual qual" there pilots in the 2/7/9...

Dual qual is something that is going to have to be voted on, I don't think this gets gifted to the company in a simple MOU, it's going to have to be negotiated in the next contract. Good luck getting that done in the next month or two so that we could start training up the 200 crews.

Come on. Don't be a doooosh. Legacy ASA = the company that was ASA, but is now the new Expressjet. Legacy Expressjet is the reciprocal...

Doesn't matter how many applicants you have if you can't get simulator time.....

Wow if this doesn't indicate how pathetic it is to fight over RJ table scraps, I don't know what does...

Pathetic, perhaps. Morally right, who knows. But there's no denying that what you dismiss as "table scraps" certainly could represent the camel getting its nose under the tent as far as Gojets establishing itself as a significant DCI carrier, and it certainly isn't "scraps" to those who may lose their entire livelihoods just so DL can save a few bucks. If this rumor is true, you can't blame management for trying to play hardball.

Illegal. Most likely. I like the optimism but this one is completely unrealistic.

lol, fighting....nobody here is doing any fighting for flying, just doing some cheerleading for our respective companies hoping they win some growth to improve our pay/qol

Legacy ASA = the Heavy Iron (700's & 900's). Legacy ASA is the CRJ side of the combined ExpressJet operation.

Everything in aviation is 50/50. Anything is possible, but It's not done till It's done.

Yes, I agree on everything being 50/50. But even then there is only a 10% chance of that.
