You think you're starved for news. I'm sitting in the crew room and nobody knows jack. Some say its 100% rumor and BS, others say it's 100% true verified by "sources."

My sources says that this is grade A BS. Gojet has no intention to take any flying away from TSA. I think that its just someone trying to whip up an anti-gojet frenzy again. From what I read here its seems to have worked. You would think that if this was really going down that a VARS message would have been issued.

Even though it was confirmed by a MEC member...He might have been wrong, too, but why would they be having the "emergency meeting" today if at least some of it wasn't true.

Well, if it makes any difference, the MEC member I called last night was AF and he couldn't confirm or deny anything. He seems like he's somewhat important and would know things so...

Holy rumor thread Batman... Calm down! Why would anybody be adding 50 seat jets in this environment? News Flash!!! Every airline out there is parking 50 seaters b/c of high RASM.

Well, if nothing else this has provided some entertainment for a day or so. In my experience, almost every rumor at TSA has proven to be true, as long as it is bad news. All the good news rumors turned out to be false. Except for the one where they told us we'd only be on reserve for a couple of months...that turned out to be very true for me.

Hmm, well if everyone's parking 50 seaters and United has 50 seat flying available, I wonder what a discount Hulas could get on these?

Cheap 200's from the desert or the current fleet of 145's....this isn't rocket science.

Where would he get 70 seaters anyway?

The current fleet of 145s, he already has them, not to mention excess of trained pilots, wich he won't have unless he hires street pilots spending time and money on CRJ training.
