Already operating these aircraft would give us an advantage I would think when it comes down to who is going to operate more 170/190's. As far as the J4J agreement, yes that does include 190 flying within it (look at previous posts within this topic). Are we officially getting 190's? That is to be determined as far as Airways flying goes. The AWA pilots are going to fight this tooth and nail which they should. Things change weekly and even daily in this industry as we all know.

It's just a message board guys, not official company information by any means. Don't get so worked up. I come on here for entertainment and it's definitely pretty amusing you guys take this so seriously. I understand it's stressful times for all of us but relax a little.

So this one guy I met online, hes like all, "oh were getting 190s and stuff yeah" and I'm like, whatever, you THINK you're getting them but Kristen, this girl I know from working at the GAP who's dad knows someone and like, jumpseats a lot, is all "yeah, their getting 190's" and cause, I guess, like, Delta or something can't afford em and something about the 170 and common fleet types and like, less training, and their better than CRJ's and I'm still all " OH MY GAWD would you get off my back about the 190s cause WE may be getting them and you like, first totally stole my hairstyle, which I was the ONLY girl in school to have until YOU got it, then your all trying to take away my flying and stuff cause that Julie girl I know is a whore that got fired from Applebees for messing around with my boyfriend in the freezer on the clock, and she said so, and so then I see where, I think the America West pilots, or some guys there are like, voting to keep them at the mainline carriers and Im all like "THANK GOD" so then I went on AOL chat and totally showed this "oh, we're getting the 190 and stuff" guy how wrong he was and it was so hilarious you gotta see it do you wanna do my nails and make out later after we get done with our sucky homework?

I said I doubt they will end up at Air Wisconsin due to their cost structure. If you are going to post what people have stated in previous topics why don't you include the whole thread?

RP170,

I thought CHQ just ratified a new J4J with regards to 190 flying. What happened? I mean after all you work there you should know. TELL US! Does that mean you won't change your screen name to RP190?

This happened:

"The US Airways and America West collective bargaining agreements will be
modified to allow for a combined maximum of ninety-three (93) CRJ-900, or
other aircraft within the seating and maximum take-off weight limits specified in
Paragraph B above, to be operated in revenue service at any given time at Express
Carriers except that for every two (2) aircraft in excess of the combined 360
aircraft (excluding EMB 190 aircraft) operated at both US Airways and America
West, that are added to revenue service in the mainline fleet, the Company may
allow three (3) additional CRJ-900, or other aircraft within the seating and
maximum take-off weight limits specified in Paragraph B above, to be operated in
revenue service at Express carriers."

My line at XJT this month was nearly identical to what you just mentioned. Plus I get paid more...and I only fly 37 and 50 seaters.
 
No one truly knows what is happening with the E190 buying, flying, or anything else that has to do with 90 seater airplanes. I think that Bluestreak's post pretty much sums up what will happen for now. There was a Ratification to our contract (LOA4) so that Management would have the ability to bid on 90 seat flying; along with the J4J deal.

I hope that America West or New Us Airways retains the 90 seat plus flying. Hopefully they will purchase the CRJ9's from Mesa and their pilots will fly those as well. A 90 seater aircraft is a 90 seat aircraft.

As Chip stated all of the planes will anything over 50 seats (Other than the Dash 4 and AT72) should be at the Majors. Sometimes in passing we do hear some of the Senior guys a CHQ/RP/S5 (Or whatever) want the E190's because they have no plans of going anywhere else. Nothing irritates me more that to hear that, because most of us don't want to be at the regionals for our entire careers. 85% of us hope that America West win's this flight and pay good wages on the 90 seats aircraft. Hopefully that will in-power more pilot groups to follow.

Best of luck to all of you.

Not sure what your beef is with the company, but we are all sorry to hear that. May you be blessed in your anger.


RP is not necessarily defending the company (management),he is defending his pilot group as he should. Don't piss on him for doing that. Maybe if more pilots and they're unions did just that, we wouldn't ALL be in the predicament that we're in now. It's not completely our (pilots) fault; as you and I do what we need to do to pay the bills. Only think we have is ourselves to back each other up.

Bluestreaks's post kind left out a couple of key details. Read for your self where he got it from.

Looks like half of your wish will come true. Unfortunately they've gave up on the 900.

I'm as happy as anyone that the 190 will stay with the majors, but the fact that the door is opened for 900s is unfortunate.

This could have gone better.

The reason we find YOU so funny is because u have been out of training for what, a month maybe 2 and u act like u know the company. All you know is how to bend over for management and fly the 170 for B1900 wages.

I did my research before coming here and felt CHQ was the place with the best QOL and opportunities for growth and advancement. If it was up to me would I have come here on my own accord? No, probably not, but sometimes you don't have much of a choice when business plans go south at the company you work for and you are furloughed. I'm just appreciative to have the opportunity I currently have.

A furlough victim that was looking for a job is more like it. I understand most guys don't seem to feel any sympathy for these folks though until it has happened to themselves and they have to start over and search for a new job. Instead you spout off and claim that a furloughed guy taking a job with CHQ must be SJS?

Well stay in your Cessna then. Thanks for keeping that bar so very high. You're a hero.

And Tricky, the reason we find YOU so funny is because your maturity rivals that of a retarded monkey. You make a post about how you nailed some fat flight attendant whore (probably unprotected) and you use letters instead of whole words. "r u going 2 the mall l8ter? u r hot my pudgy fa friend". Your writing makes you sound like a 13 year old girl, or possibly a 13 year old boy with repressed homosexual urges. I can see you growing up to be like some of our male FA's who experimented with heterosexuality in the past and now are just gay men with children.

And Doug...I'd take a pay cut for the 190's just so you could use that oh so clever cliche' of SJS again, because as you know, using that term immediately establishes credibility and and a sincere desire to "raise the bar" from those of us "bottemfeeders" who have "lowered the bar" in the "race to the bottem" by flying "shiny" airplanes and "undercutting" all the "reputable" airlines. There, did I hit all the popular terms associated with Chautauqua? I must admit, using that vocabulary makes me sound much more clever and witty; I'm almost getting this feeling of superiority to everybody else. Wow! No wonder you people use these words so much. Rock on!

And yes, I hope we do get 190's. Now, proceed with the stereotypical flames and then ask if I care...........:p
