No contempt for the CHQ pilots, most of them are stand up guys. Its their management that ticks me off. Bedford badmouths XJET for keeping the airplanes and further crowding the skys with regionals jets that nobody wants, then he goes and PULLS CRJs OUT OF THE BONEYARD. Talk about a
hypocrite. And CAL didn't "86 a ton of our flying", they removed a whopping 69 airplanes. And CAL is not happy with CHQs performance to date. In GSO the gate agents are tired of the weight restrictions so they just pass out $1000 vouchers right off the bat. Same thing happened in COS and MSP. All three have easily spent $70,000 a month in denied boarding compensation. And CAL actually begged us to keep some of our XRs in the CAL fleet to pick up the slack the CHQ operation has left behind. You name it, broke airplanes, no crew, wrong crew(ERJ crew to fly a CRJ, its happened many times) crew members constantly missing DHs, the 90 day eval was not good.
