2) MAPD puts guys through to mesa with ~200TT. There are guys with around that time flying the "90 seaters" at MAG, which are actually 86 seats.
3) In rickair's defense, he mentioned its a net gain for pilot jobs but a net loss in quality of said jobs.
Dude you're batting 0 for 3 today...
Sorry, as a MKE commuter, I only know about Midwest's 717, which only seat 85 people. Personally, I don't care if rick mention loss of quality of jobs, its the guys that are willing to take those 87 seat airplanes away from the majors that are going to wreck my future earnings. And is MAG is putting guys with 200TT in the -900 series then god help us all
