And about the abuse you wrote about on a different thread, like I said before, it is a regional and I didn't come here to retire. All of my friends at other regionals complain about the same stuff. Just look at all the talk on this site, everyone complaining about something. I don't think I have ever read a post that praised their regional as being the best place to work. By the way, who do you fly for?
Work for OO, not perfect but a place I wouldn't mind spending a few extra years or a career at if mergers/age 65 happen. Pay is alright, could be better, work rules are some of best out there, this month flying 68 hours, crediting around 100 with 13 days off. Mesaba if anyone should have gotten those 900's. Selfish to say that Pinnacle should have had them with Mesaba loosing all the Avro's. 900's and 170's are not good for anyone, unless they are mainline. The "quick upgrade" might not be so quick in the future, 1000 pic might not mean a whole lot. How much has mainline grown in the last 7 years? How much have the regionals grown in the last 7 years?
