anybody care to give their opinion on Compass as compared to Trans State? I know they are owned by the same parent company, but are there any big differences between the two from a pilots perspective. I know bases and airplanes obviously. But to me they seem somewhat similar, especially as compared to go jet.

Even if Republic owned all of their airplanes outright (which the don't) Republic management won't sit on those airplanes unless they are getting compensated from their mainline partners. They don't sell their own tickets and if their mainline partner stops paying them, Republic management will relinquish them anyway. It is poor business practice to sit on something that is only costing you money when you can eliminate that cost by giving them away.

They won't go to United unless United pays them extra money that they already are, but that would involve Republic flying more for United. United won't pay them extra just to have spares in their system because Delta cancelled their CPA.


How are you not getting this? Republic canceled orders for 25 new ejets. Those 25 were part of the original 55 ordered to meet the requirements of the new United CPA. There are roughly 20 ejets flying for delta. Those 20 jets will be used to help cover the flying on a CPA that is ALREADY IN PlACE! United won't have to pay more money, they are already paying it. So United won't have to pay more money, republic won't have to bid on more flying and they get to get out of the 145 market and reduce down to a snake operating certificate which is the company's stated goal.

It is business and done all the time. Get used to being played.


404 showed a balance sheet that is an outline of short, medium and long term costs.... Nothing more. Everything else is speculation. I've tried to explain the fairly well known plan by RAH and BB to shed the delta deal and the 145's, but because the end game isn't what is being predicted here, no one listens.

You'll never listen because you're a Republic hating troll whose been stuck in the right seat of an XJET rj for the better part of a decade. You're ****ed off watching your fleet getting divided up between other carriers while getting pounded in the A** by Skywest. And you want to see it happen to someone else. Tough sh!t bud, you should be used to getting played.

Man, Turbine is in full denial mode. He would be an awesome episode for Operation Repo.

Unless the new TA changed it, that is not legal per the pilot contract. All Republic owned aircraft have to be operated by pilots on the Republic seniority list, as it should be.

Since when does Republic abide by their pilot contract?
