Over in the XJT forum, tons of captain upgrades being awarded on the 175. Rumors that they are slated to receive 20 new UAX airplanes....

I thought this was already confirmed?

That's what I'm unsure of. They're posting like it's an additional 20. I know they were awarded 25 and are currently at like 13 or something like that.

Ohhh maybe that’s what I’m thinking of, the 25 they got. Well if they get 20 more, everyone here better get their apps out to other places!

Agreed. However I don't think anything's certain. According to some of their math, they might just be beefing up on 175 CA's to meet their staffing needs for the 25. They saying 225 CA's which would be like what, 17 or 18 airplanes? Who knows. I have also heard the rumoring of the training department being asked how many people we can shove through.

XJT merger confirmed! You heard it here first!

What a **** show that would be.

Meh. I could commute to two out of their five bases pretty easily. Add in the two of ours that would survive the all-Mana merger and it would be OK. Not planning on working their indefinitely.

But given my choice, I like the cadre for Moxy rumor better.

There would be blood. Not like MEC-fight-for-power blood. It'd be like "that five-year CPZ guy took my IAH 175 CA slot stab him" blood.

I gotta say, this one has grown on me. Being pioneers in a new outfit flying E190's and finally being released from the grasp of holdings? Yes please.
