Just want to know how those out there in the trenches see it!
old fleet, old pilots, old news. drastic changes to get it in line with other feed. then other feed brought in to whipsaw eagle. that about sums it up. all atr's gone in less than 4 yrs. Only 80+ embs that are 50 seats, the rest have less - probably going to the desert sooner than later. will have 47 CRJ's assuming deliveries continue - these are marginal with fuel at $95 a barrel - good times!
