Hi!

I heard they are flying 25 for DAL, and losing 15 for NWA, for a net gain of 10.

The BIG problem, aside from the fact that they can't staff the fleet they have now, is that they're staffed at about 3.0 crews/aircraft. The DAL contract requires 5.0 crews/aircraft for their 25 jets.

Good luck with that!!!

PSA, USA Jet and Mesa? (if not one or more other airlines) also have no published minimum hours.

I have heard that more than 1 regional is actually hiring guys with NO commercial! WHen they pass their -121 checkrides, they are also awarded their commercial.

Ab-initio is next.
