The word is out. That RAh is losing all or part of the AA contract, so all you want-to-be 175 pilots, your dream won't be a 175 it will be a q400 so enjoy.
 
Keep the seat warm

The flying is coming back to L-eagle where it should of been all along, enjoy it while you can.
 
Interesting. I wonder if this has anything to do with RAH suddenly reopening contract talks after IBT national replaced the NC.

What is the reason for losing the contract?

Is because of operational issues or because they cannot get enough pilots?

Also, any truth that RAH is folding their Q400 feed for United out of DEN?

Just curious, thanks!

If there are articles like this that pop up again this winter, you may be on to something
 
Naaaahaaa,
No pilot shortage happening, its oddly, kinda funny. The collapse of the regional industry is slowly gaining momentum. I will enjoy watching the various regional executives standing on the local freeway onramps with cardboard signs that say, "will screw pilots for food".
While we may feel some pain, I am sure that there is no market for their level of incompetence in the free market. Stupid and mean are not qualities that most employers look for.

Stolen from the Skywest SAPA forums:
Attrition rates:
"Past 6 months 87 pilots or about 1 leaving every 50 hrs
Past 3 months 55 pilots or about 1 leaving every 40 hrs
Past 1 months 25 pilots or about 1 leaving every 30 hrs
Past 1 week 9 pilots or about 1 leaving every 20 hrs"
 
There is no truth to this rumor.

The newspaper links are > 6 months old and have nothing to do with this at all.

I can't even say "nice try" as you didn't even put in any effort to support your rumor.

Total troll.

The posts were to show the pathetic performance of Republic last winter into the ski resorts.

Was nothing to "support" a rumor...get your sh*t together and pay attention before you spout off

Interesting analysis.

But I'm unclear where I started anything.

Projecting are we?!

Hmmm, you started with the insults by referring to me as a troll..did you forget this already? I respond to your lack of paying attention, and this is your response...I posted it below in case you had a lapse in your actions of the past..

"Thanks for the helpful insult. I'm certain your parents are proud of you."

Now, are you really this clueless, or is this a big goof?

No. I pointed out that the original poster was a troll.

I pointed out that your links had nothing to do with the original post.

Obviously reading comprehension isn't your strong suit.

I also pointed out how proud your parents must be with your debate skills.

I stand by my posts.

Good day.

Apps and resume out to more than a few carriers, I am lucky, I can afford to wait for one of my first tier choices. Every month spent waiting is more into the 401(k), and portfolio, and bank account to be ready for the initial pay reduction. I have managed to prepare for 5 years at the lowest payscale at my choicest airlines, and heaven forbid if the f-word happens, I will ride it out well working at Taco Bell.

Whats a matter, didn't your mother love you? I am sorry you have to sit in the high school computer lab to get on F/I. I am also sorry that your grandmothers dial up access isn't fast enough to get you on F/I from her house. If I go nowhere, I will still be somewhere, and while not my first choice, it will work well enough.
Sorry, sad bitter, troll.
