I've heard we have three in today's new hire class.

That is correct...three new hires started today.

Captain I flew with last night said he flew from MKE, and happened to talk to a mechanic that claims that the company is going to park 12 aircrew ft by the end of the year. If this is correct 50 percent of the FO's will never upgrade. might have to run while we can.

That brings up a great question. Where are all those C Series that republic was supposed to be taking going? I have a feeling there is a deep discount for those aircraft available.

A mke mechanic that I talked to only said 6 about 2 weeks ago. That's quite a differance. None the less. We need need some new planes, flying, any incentive at all to come here. Resume has been updated.

How can AWAC acquire the C series and still stay within scope, unless they are going back to the good 'ol days when they actually sold tickets on their own routes? But something ells me Appleton to Kokomo, IN is not going to be as lucrative

Well three guys, I guess, started this past Monday. Out of those 3 how many get through our pathetic training dept?

For the month were at 7 CA Resignations and 10 FOs. I would imagine it will be a bit more by the time April 1st rolls around. Sure we are hiring, but we are still negative pilots every month.

aa scope does not stop any regional from flying a 747. what it does is limits what they can fly as an aa feed. with that said, mesa can by 787's and approach aa to codeshare the 787 from phx to dfw 24 times a day as a domestic codeshare, which is allowed by aa scope but up to 15% of the aa domestic narrowbody block ours.

I know the old timers often mention we have a deal with United to fly 100 seat airplanes. I know nothing about it other than I've heard it throughout my time here.
