Skywest transferring planes to ASA?

[viper548]

There are 7 900's flying the ATL system. I think there were only 4 last month. Oct-Dec it was about 8 airplanes. The ATL base has shrunk, but is now understaffed, which is why they're TDYing people to ATL to sit reserve

701 now 609 is flying form HDN-SLC as we speak..

 

[joe_pilot]

Skywaste is pretty much done with ATL. There are only a few reserve crews remaining.

Negative. 12 Hard lines and 4 reserve for April.

This is weird:

Friday schedule does indeed show:

N701EV & N702EV

and

N700AT (???)

Hmmm thought we were only getting 2 more -700's as per S.H. for the May schedule???

 

[Long Time Gone]

OK, so where did 705 and 706 go? I only remember 701, 702, Christine, and 704 being transfered.

SkyW and Pink are only keeping the ATL 900 routes warm for ASA until ASA can get into the delivery schedule for new 900's. Now that ASA has a new contract with all its groups, theres no sense in having SkyW and ASA in the same base with the same A/C and Pink won't be on the DL connection label for long.

Pink?

Pink?

Pinnacle

have said it before, so I'll say it again. ASA is NOT getting 900's. Not from Skywest. Not at all. That ship has sailed on without us.......

There is NO current transfer of any SKYW aircraft going anywhere. The only aircraft SKYW is letting go are 15 EBM-120s this year. SKYW is also slowly transferring old CRJ2s from the Delta to the Midwest side. Also, as old Comair aircraft flows through PSP, MX is equipping all of them with ACARS. They hope to have all the aircraft ACARS equipped by the end of the year.

 

[Jon Rivoli]

Perhaps some of the ships coming from Comair are being assigned your old tail numbers.

 

[XPOO]

Can you reuse your own tail number? I thought there was something against that due to MX Records?

 

[Jon Rivoli]

MX records are tracked by hull number.

Were not even letting go of 15 E120's only about 4 this year.

I agree! If anyone thinks we won't get the 900's(in whatever config you want to call them) is just dillusional. These people will put what they want, where they want, when they want. More jetbridges going in, just a matter of time. Not next month, but I would say within the year.
