Usairways Aircraft Order

[fowingman]

News will be released in november of a order. Let the flame start... I have reliable information. (Old friends who work at bombardier) in the finance department had some interesting things to say, without exactly saying them!!!

 

[Swaayze]

They already have an order in the works with Bombardier that we all know about for CRJ900s. Not really new info I suspect.

 

[Lampshade]

Probably new Dash's, see here http://www.canada.com/montrealgazet....html?id=59b562ec-9a9c-4dca-8d95-f6ad15d615d4

 

[ceo_of_the_sofa]

Who's getting the -900s?

 

[DieselDash]

No one's getting 900's. The words from Doug's mouth.

 

[Quack]

That aritcle is old news...I wouldn't hold my breath for any new dash's in nov.

 

[fowingman]

that article isn't what i am talking about i have knowledge that good stuff is in the works.....!!!!

 

[Quack]

Well I always hope for the best, but I have been blue in the face for years...things have been in the so called works for a loooonnnngggg time. I hope you can prove me wrong.

I just wish it would quit burning when I urinate

 

[Soverytired]

E-190's probably. Yet this is a regional forumn, so who really cares?

Now if they were to start buying 50-seater for mainline to fly . . THAT would be news.

 

[JetMonkey]

Some new NG's would be nice, heard they were talking to Boeing lately.

Unless they are talking with Boeing or Airbus it is NOT good news.

Way too much crap from Bombardier flying in USAir paint as it is!!!

 

[BenderGonzales]

The age of the replacement jet. One of the many, many, alter-ego carriers masquerading as US Airways will fly the new equipment.

 

[Soverytired]

Oops.

RTFQ, eh?

So if its bombardier, they must be talking about the CRJ-900X. As they currently haven't officially announced that they're even going to develop this "super-streched" CRJ, one is led to believe that:

USAir is gunning to be the launch customer for the most uncomfortable 100 seat passenger get ever produced?

they are already commited to the E190, so I don't really see them going for the 900x (which would almsot certainly be flown by mainline). If this is for real, might be re-affirmation of the old 900 order, might be new dashes (converted from the 900 order?), might be more 700s.

 

[stamps]

I heard it's gonna be all the newly deferred A-380s. Either way, it's about time for ASA to strike.

That would be about right for the braniac mgmt.........park 60 F-100's that were paid for in the desert and buy the CRJ 100 seaters for big bucks and give every passenger back trouble for the rest of their life!!!

Me too.

 

[Swaayze]

Chuck Norris squirts fire and merely considers it pleasantly warm. Man up!

 

[BoilerUP]

If US Airways is going to buy anything that isn't a Boeing or Airbus, it needs to be the Q400.

amen!

 

[JetDriver1]

I flew with a captain the other day who said he heard from an FAA guy that Piedmont is definitely getting the Q400's. Not sure how the FAA guy would know....maybe from working on getting the manuals ready?

I flew with a FO and he told me the Catering Guy told him that we were getting Q400's too! It must be true!!! wink wink!!

 

[JetDriver1]

LOL, nice.

And a ramper in PHL also told me that the rampers are all going to get a lot in profit sharing this quarter for their hard work and productivity, including stock options (that is, if they know what stock options are). j/k

 

[WSurf]

Now thats Funny!!!

The return of the Dutch Oven? Eeek. I would hope that a spanking new CRJ-900 would be better in the summer than that POS.

Stay away from the neighbors!

Thats the problem. The 100 was an uncomfortable turd in July and August for the people that pay the bills....passengers. The 900 is an uncomfortable turd year around for the people that pay the bills!!!

Pax don't care about comfort or who is up front. They may complain about comfort. But at the end of the day, they care about ticket price. How else can you explain all the rj's or mesa?
