Where are the 900's Going?

You don't know what you're talking about. Our flying times for ATL have been adjusted. We just had 8 days of 100% ATL completion, and our numbers are usually in the top 3 for DCI.

For the month of Aug (its almost over). PCL is #3 on Completion, Arival -14 and D-0, behind RP, and OO. PCL operates a whopping 52 flights. RP=200 OO=474. And the biggest there, ASA=890. All of these are flights per day.
So keep that ralley cry going! We're #3! We're #3!

Oh and BTW, as far into your contract as you are you shouldn't be "helping out" to keep that Delta flying. Its not like you are going to loose it in the end. After all, we'll all be Delta soon.

Yeah with 52 flights per day and 7 crews per plane my 3 year old could do that. Good job!

I'd think an announcement would be coming very soon since those airplanes were announced to leave Freedom early next month.

FWIW Jerry has said publicly that it is very expensive to operate two different bases at the same airport, quite recently too.

So they'll consolidate! ASA can't seem to get new flying anyway, it'll go exactly like USAir/AmWest did and ASA will play the AmWest part.

All I want to know is; do you guys have anyone at PCL that dosen't have a green card? Cause none of you guys can speak plain english. Just another shining example of American jobs being outsourced to foreigners willing to do it for far far less than anyone else. And the quaility of your work sucks.

Because we've given up trying to teach professional airline pilots how to spell a word a second grader can spell. Actually, I gave my 6 year old cousin a try. Got it on the first try. L-O-S-E.

Once again he shows the world what a jackass he is. I've said it before and I'll say it again. It's because of little dip weeds like yourself that your women have to go overseas to find men to marry. Spend less time on here looking like an idiot and more time taking care of business and your problems will be solved.

I'm curious how this 76 seat number came about? Why not 75? Why not 77? Just seems like some arbitrary number to see if bean counters were paying attention.

All kidding aside, why would Delta want to put more than 76 seats in a -900 if it meant mainline guys flying them for more money? Would the increase in ASM's offset the increase in operating costs?

Looks like you could use a few English lessons yourself....

You've got to love it. The rantings of the ignorant and semi-literate.

Mesaba is my guess. They just revised the latest vacancy from 6 new hires on the 900 to 35 new hires split between the 900 and the saab. Something is going on at XJ.

I think I might agree on this one. We're also hiring like sim instructors all of a sudden. When I thought most of them were placed back on the line? *shrug* Who knows...

I remember he was happy when he found out that Delta terminated Pinnacle's contract, i'm sure he is pissed off that Pinnacle got the flying back and there's a chance that more 900's could go to Pinnacle. Sounds like he is just looking for something to bad mouth Pinnacle.

There's no job posting of instructors I call BS on that rumor. They just let a bunch of very qualified guys back to the line. Those guys would be recalled back to their old position before hiring new instructors.

 

[flap operator]

XJ - you might go check mesaba.com and you'll see there are indeed sim and ground instructor positions. They were just posted yesterday.

 

[Erlanger]

Not ASA.

Look for Skywest or Pinnacle.

Comair and ASA the biggest losers in DCI flying. (Along with Freedumb)

Pinnacle and Skywest the biggest winners.

Skywest President recently addressed this. He said that Skywest is definitely not getting those 900's.

 

[30West]

Two weeks ago, Freedom was loosing seven 900's.

All loose 900s have been subsequently re-tightened. OPs check good, RTS.

XJ, It's a XJ Memo, I haven't looked to see if there was a job postings on Mesaba's website.

 

[TailHeavy]

Stop the rumor mill, nothing's happening at XJ, they just changed the 8-15 Vacancy for the second time to 34 new hires, not 35.

....anyone want to question a union that allows us all to bid against one another for these airplanes and then doesn't allow us to make lateral movements when one unit takes airplanes from another unit?
