It sounds like an agreement has been made.
I got this e-mail in my Company Mailbox this morning.
"Effective August 1st, Houston, Texas (IAH) will become the next EMB120 domicile. Initially, the base will consist of approximately 10 crews and 2 aircraft. The base will grow to approximately 45 crews and 9 aircraft by years end. We will begin flying into two cities from Houston in July, which will require to TDY from other domiciles.
Bids for Houston EMB120 position will be accepted beginning today, "
No official word on how this new flying will be staffed but it is open for current employees to bid for.
A VP has stated that "The agreement we have with CO is that we will hire their pilots for additional flying created by carrying the CO code."
I think this is good news for both Skywest and the guys sitting on furlough at ExJet.
With Mesa arriving in Denver with their Dash 8s in July, we will probably loose the prop flying there eventually.
