You'll find out soon enough that this mighty E-180 isn't what you guys have built it up to be.
Yes...I do understand that.
Bottom line--I'm really just sick of hunching over on the walk of shame to the aft lav of the 700, and at Mesa existing CRJ CAs are barred from lateral transfer to the EJet, so the EJet will be a junior airplane here for at least the next 4-5 years.
I don't mean to sidetrack your thread--I'm just a former 9e pilot who has come out really well (for now) by finally bailing out of that sinking ship. I hope all of you will find better opportunities than sitting around DTW/JFK on 4th year FO pay in perpetuity--you're better than that (at least the Pinnacle guys I know are!).
