Why am I hearing.

A national seniority list from ALPA- waste of good hope. They can't even get the DCI regionals to abide by the contract standards agreement. They've spent years working on a minimum bar, locking in flying, preventing the shuffle, and trying to nip the undercutting. After all that, the Pinnicle MEC throws a contract out for a vote that doesn't even come close to what our OLD contract used to be. The regionals will always be out for themselves, and no plausible method exists to stop it.

I hate to see Comair take the beating. I hate to see the pilots get dragged through the pain of managements misdeeds. However, if Comair (or any regional, for that matter) is going to get phased out, it's going to happen. While I don't wish to see Comair disappear, and I don't wan't their airframes, If someone IS going to end up with them, I'd rather be on the recieving end than Mesaba, Pinnicle, Mesa, or Republic....................Oh, or Compass. Personally, I'd have no problem taking their pilots along with the airframes............

777, You make me sick. I sincerely hope that if asa gains any planes it is not at the expense of comair. They have been getting beat down way more than any other dci carrier and i wish only the best for them. Dont have such a giddy attitude about someone possibly losing their job or getting displaced cause it may be you next.

You know the type....probably 22-23 yrs old, proud to be flying the big rj. Is 100% focused on getting to the left seat or skipping up to a major. Growth at any cost...This is the sad mentality plaguing the regional industry.

You know the type.... probably 35-40 yrs old, miserable to be flying the rj. Is 100% focused on getting to the majors or skipping out on his wife. Growth at any cost...This is the sad mentality plaguing the regional industry.

This is a fun game. Your turn.

Oh, here's one...

You know the type....probably 25-30 yrs old, proud to be f(beep)cking the hot FA. Is 100% focused on getting to 2nd base or skipping up to a homerun, even if it means getting super AIDS. Growth at any cost...This is the sad mentality plaguing the regional industry.

Not quite, a bit younger, not married, but it is miserable to listen to guys like you talking about flying. Man I hope we get their planes...man I hope we do XYZ to get more flying...man I hope if we agree to paying for our hotel rooms we could get more 900s.

Geez dude, easy! I don't think he said he wished or hoped that would happen, and I certainly didn't detect any glee from his post. Seemed to me he was simply conjecturing what may be happening. I personally haven't heard about ASA getting anything from Comair - and I am 100% positive that not ONE SINGLE ASA pilot wants to take anything from Comair!

People are just having a conversation about what is happening these days. I'm sure 777 didn't mean to p!ss you guys off.

I am an asa plt and his flippant statement about how their 60% just became 100% really rubbed me the wrong way.

I'm pretty sure he is making fun of you and not making a statement about flying....

Just sayin'...

I have no idea what you just said. Perhaps you can repeat your statement while utilizing proper sentence structure and punctuation.

Very rarely do I actually engage in discussions about aviation here so it looks like the joke is on you.

You only have 400+ posts. But I imagine most of those are about the Miata you have in your picture, not aviation.

Actually, that's a Corolla. You're forgiven.

Good info, so whats the "new LEX ruling?"

The Kentucky Supreme Court upheld the ruling of the lower court that Bluegrass Airport could not be sued by Comair over the 5191 crash because the airport has sovereign immunity.

Well, that is interesting considering that SH's latest email said November will include flying to other cities from CVG, LGA, and BOS. Those are all in CMR's neck of the woods.

And that has to do with our contract with DAL and min. block hours in the agreement.
