So considering this latest group of recalls, at what point would you say things are looking up for aviation? Or have we merely found the bottom?
I believe the other airlines recalls have been due to small growth in hours from whatever majors they fly for, or for small amounts of attrition.

This recall at xjet is just for the united flying. I believe the union said the company would evaluate the continental schedule next year and see if any additional recalls are needed.

So to answer your question...it looks like the regional world is ever so slowly crawling back up from rock bottom. I wouldn't plan on a whole lot of new hires classes next year though...probably just the really high-time-already-typed-thousands-of-hours-turbine-time guys getting picked off the top of the stacks of resumes.
