You keep telling your self that you "tightened scope" there is an AD coming on the CRJ series that will effectively park a bunch, so yeah "you tightened scope", they were gonna park them anyway, you just gave them big RJs in trade. Pilots just can't figure out why they keep losing at poker, mgmt owns the table, the cards, and has their own bouncer at the door, and the first rule in the game is, the pilots must hold the cards face out and not look at them.
And much to my chagrin SKYW is spooling up the SGU, crack new airplane staff, to get big EMBs on the property by the end of 2013. I hope to be long gone by then, I have been trying to get out for the last 10 years, but when my choices all have more than a few hundred furloughs, it's hard to get hired, and no SWA is not on my list. I do not need your sympathy, what I need you to do is man up, put your big boy pants on, and slam the car door on RA's fingers. No big RJs, period, not one for any reason, nada,nope, forgettaboudit! I will do the rest.
USAirways? No thanks that's just TSA with bigger jets.
