Mesaba SLC what cities?

[WMUSIGPI]

The SLC aircraft Mesaba will operate will backfill SkyWest in SLC, while SkyWest will backfill ASA until ASA's 90's are up and going in April '09.

Not saying you are wrong.... But WOW that makes SOOOO much sense. (extreme sarcasm)

OO as a increase of ATL flying in Feb.

 

[Erlanger]

That sure makes sense now, since Jerry's pathetic excuse for closing ASA in SLC was that "it didn't make sense to have both airlines based in the same place." Now with ASA getting 900's OO should be seen even less in ATL.

Even though Jerry wants to see ASA thrive, the Skywest side of the "Inc." is and always will be Jerry's baby.

any truth to the rumor Mesaba is overstaffed now, including guys in class, by about 80-100 pilots?

Furloughs?

ASA's success determines SkyWest's survival and thrivability. It's all his baby now.

Furloughs?

Word I heard from someone in upgrade right now is overstaffed 50 on the Jets and 70 on the Saabs. Short term, no furloughs waiting to see if anything else pans out. If nothing does then furloughs are likely. No hiring for the forseeable future.

maybe XJ will get the 35 options that Delta has with Bombarier? Who knows who will get those. But why else spend millions on all of XJ's ground training equipment , unless they will use it all for just recurrent and RFT's? Unlikely.

Investment on our part means nothing to Delta. It's a drop in the bucket for them. We'll see what happens, but in my opinion, it's a wake up call to us all. They can take our planes away at anytime. The regionals will never be a career until the majors swallow their ego and get the senority lists merged.

Bingo, now how do we all work together instead of against each other to do that?
