We bought Midwest and are the owners of the 190's. Midwest now = Republic = Midwest = Republic, get it? 190's on our own certificate. And you better get going on that list as the first 190 was put in the system yesterday to give ground personnel some experience with it and will be flying routes all week with pax on board. It'll be showing up in CMH on Thursday and doing routes from there.

In regards to the list integration, I don't know how that's going to work. Date of hire? Heck no. Staple? Heck no. It'll be a proportional basis; whether it's 5:1, 10:1, 20:1, 30:1, I have no clue. The unions are trying to work that out now. It'll be a successful integration when both sides are ****ed off. The furloughs is going to be an ugly situation as we both have them. I don't have an answer as to where the furloughs should go.

I fully expect and want the 190 payrate issue in our contract to go to an arbitrator as we'll end up winning in the end. JB has their new rates and Airways will soon be going back to their pre-9/11 rates when the concessions expire this year.

If you truly are at YX Edwin, I'm shocked. Most of the guys I've met there have been professional, courteous, mature and would rather talk to me (us) about the issues than act like my 4 year old. Thence why I think you are a troll.
