I too am an AWAC Alumni (04-07). I have numerous friends that are there. In just the three years that I was there I cannot tell you how many times I saw where we lost RFP's. It was a great place to be 5+ years ago. Now, I think it is evident that there will be no growth. I think that if you get on as a new hire then you should expect to upgrade due to attrition. That doesn't mean that it won't happen. When I got hired I was 822 of 822. We had 70 CRJ's and 17 BAE-146's. When I left (exactly three years later) I was 3 months from upgrading and there were 70 CRJ's. A LOT of folks bailed after the United split.
