What a waste of money and resource @ Piedmont. Employees and their family's life's over at envoy. Why in the hell would AA place 20 Erj 145s at Piedmont when you have so many airlines that already operate the type? ExpressJet and TSA are getting 15 each they should have just given them 25 each. 20 aircraft just to get piedmont to a concessionary contract. WHAT A WASTE. If they can get the 145s up and running in a year WHY not the 40 E175? Piedmont is always behind the power curve. UNFREAKING believable.... STUPID is STUPID does.
