*Rumor* OO/EV to start "at risk" Florida flying?

[Cpt Oveur]

Branded flying and "at risk" flying are not the same thing. Branded flying is going off on your own, ie ACA to Indy Air. "At risk" flying is contract flying where the regional is paid based on the profit of the flight, instead of a "fee for departure" type of flying.

 

[ohplease!]

Its flying for the 20 ASA 200s. Skywest does not have airplanes to cover the flying. Once the announcement is made next month, PBS will pass for sure.

PBS will pass regardless of new flying being announced prior. If its UAL flying, Skywest will get it. Maybe them taking that flying will take their planes out of our back yard and our 50's will stay in ATL to fill their "void".

I'll confirm that ASA people will be very happy in a few weeks. Seriously.

UAL's RFP for UAX flying was for 56 airplanes not 20, and included a request for turboprops.

 

[flyboyzz1]

This doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the RFP... SKW has been taking on a bunch of at risk stuff in ORD and DEN the last few months which hasn't had anything to do with it. They have said over and over that they have found flying for the 12 or some odd number of 200s that were in MKE... they haven't said for who yet though but sounds like additional UAL at risk stuff. Not sure if it has anything to do with the FL stuff.

So I hear ASA will be flying 20 CRJ200's for United out of IAD with a mx base in CAE for them. Not sure if IAD will be a base or CAE be a base and fly through IAD. Sorry to put another log on the rumor fire but was told by ________ in the GO

Flybozz your avatar is crazy awesome!

Problem is that most people in Daytona would rather drive 80 miles to Orlando, pay for parking then spend $40 more for the convienence of flying out of DAB. MLB is in the same boat.

 

[Uncle Bunkle]

There's a bunch of tools over at XJT and also at Air Wisconsin who all think they are getting this flying...HA!!!! What a bunch of clowns, always think they're better than everyone else, but they're just too damn expensive to ever get new flying. Clowns...

Do you guys suppose this would generate a recall (at least partial), or would a PBS passage negate the need for any additional pilots?

 

[79%N1]

Well, ASA is already currently flying those planes.....and there are still furloughs and downgrades. This would only offset future losses.

It would also be MUCH cheaper for ASA to do this flying because there are already planes. Anybody else would have to get more a/c.

ASA already moved most of its MX outstations to CAE.

Bloody 'ell.

Oh, and Mesaba Sucks![/QUOTE],


Sorry about XJ denying you a job!!!! Let me know when you're done bleeding because we might be hiring in two years. You should be done with your menstrual cycle by then.

believe it when you see it

Yeah I know that. CAE was going to play some role in the operations. Either as a MX base for the aircraft flying for United or as a crew base. Not sure if ASA moved MX to CAE for this reason but kinda makes someone wonder.

IF we get United flying, why would CAE be a crew base if the flying will be out of IAD...I don't follow.

It's a perfect in between point from IAD and ATL. You could shuttle crews either way based on demand. That's how I see it. Additionally, IAD has been a problem in the past for INC. because of flow of aircraft. With ATL and CAE that's no longer a problem. I hope Inc. can find flying for those 20 aircraft and hopefully more so we can bring back our own.
