Who's Hiring?

Ace is right. CHQ will lose the DCI contract. The reason Delta contracted CHQ is because the Comair's 50 seat aircraft were losing money in Florida, but the 37 seat aircraft is profitable. Now that Comair is getting more pilots and more 37 seat CRJs, they will take those routes back.

Oh wait... Canadair doesn't make a 37 seater...

CHQ already has the 37 seat aircraft with more on the way, which is perfect for the Florida market. Comair cannot run those routes profitably. Also, Delta has just acquired the ERJs that CHQ was operating for America West, which brings the total DCI package to 34 airplanes. I don't think that CHQ is in any danger of losing this contract anytime soon.

Been to DFW lately? Seen the new DCI ticket counters being built? According the senior management, look for a Chautauqua DFW base coming soon...

Comair has two first officers in training with 250 and 350 hours. They came from WMU.

CHQ

CHQ IS hiring.

They are looking at at least 30-40/mo.thru the end of the year.

The low down,

Good company, good bases, great equipment (all ERJ's) great people; and there's GROWTH.

Still in contract negotiations, but should have something on the table in a few months.

For those who are new to the industry, go to an airline that has some growth going on.

Good luck,
