I don't ever see Midwest ever becoming an ALL 170/190 airline, unless they forfeit CLE, ATW, GRB, IND, GRR etc. Its not economical to run those planes to these cities. Loads right now on our SkyWest CRJs are around mid-20s if we are lucky.

Sounds like they need some 30+/- seaters in MKE. Too bad there are any Do328J's around....hmmm...indeed too bad...
 
that would be sooo cool!


1)You think Delta is going to be very happy with Republic operating it's own airline... dont think so.
2) You think the mighty republic could operate against southwest...dont think so

It is a very good chance that Skywest will be cut from all the Midwest flying... but I guarantee you if that happens, Republic won't be flying for them either...


I CANNOT WAIT for Southwest to spool up its MKE operation..........couldn't have happened to a better group of ___________ (fill in the blank with your own expletive)
 
1) How do you know Delta isn't pulling the strings behind the scenes in order to get 100 seaters codesharing for Delta?
2) Well, maybe not. But with the current pilot pay rates, a E190 with a cheap crew may be able to compete against Southwest. The FO at Southwest makes more than the Captain at RAH. The E190 is pretty fuel efficient too. Who knows.


Its so efficient every regional operates them....denial is amazing.
 
Uh oh. Looks like some sand got into yours.

No, I'm just sick of the juvenile attitude toward other pilots. I don't care who you are or what airline you crawled out from under, I don't judge other pilots anymore because people's lives are complicated and hard. Maybe the hand you've been dealt won't be great forever and you'll be forced to make a hard choice in your career. Maybe you're one of the ATA pilots forced to find a career at GOJets. Maybe you live in Pheonix and the only way to make your schedule work with your wife and 3 kids is to work at Mesa and be based at home. I don't know what your situation is, but I doubt you fully understand others'. Also, do you honestly think people phone up the CEO and are consulted with the companies direction. Seriously, were you even at any RAH company around 2003 during the vote and did you cast a ballot? Until you do, I'd be careful about judging others. Either way, the last thing this profession needs is guys like Goulet and others acting like animals and shouting unnecessary comments at other pilots.
