Still no word whether these are GoJet or Mesa CRJ700’s coming offline, but I expect our stock price to drop sharply on the news.
Now you remember when I told you all Ejets coming in house ?
Alpa UAL MEC goal I said
Wait for the new contract at UAL and tag all pilots from this new Express wholly owned like Lufthansa does I n the bottom.
That was the plan of UAL MEC all along and now watch the orders for the bigger E jets
One seniority all flown by United pilots was the goal
It’s coming
How many E jets you have will be transfer back to UAL as the 5-7 years leases expires with Mesa
I think 48 from Mesa and 20 from Republic will end up back at UAL
I hope they renew your 700s so you keep the jobs
Seriously I do hope
22 plus years into this game I know just a little about this game. Ask your MEC Chair and VP of flight ops
I even told them the 175s coming to Mesa before they knew about it. Ask your head of recruitment and alpa administrator about that as well or ask about the possibility of United buying the 700 operation back in 2006 I believe it was and tag 10 crews per aircraft to UAL seniority that will be your VP to as since he was an MEC Chair at the time
