Ditto. Nothing there. I have real concerns this MEC will allow scope to further decay. Maybe just a bad feeling, but I'm guessing some more Kool-Aide is about to be served.

If they do...and they read this board, I will happily lead the effort to recall every single one of them. Take note, MEC. Do not screw this up.

If they sell us out on scope, I'm guessing this will become alot more popular!!!

80, did you see the C70-200 series (far right one)? It'll be based in DFW:

"also whats in the big big crate in the sim bay in the ATL training center? I haven't personally seen it, we're just talking about it."

Not that exciting. It's just a replacement visual display system for one of the simulators.

There has been no, zip, zero, nada discussion of trading scope for pay.

I firmly believe that a "south guy" was baiting you into spilling your half full glass. I do not know to what end.

I heard a rumor today. Reasonably intelligent pilots were getting spun up about things that haven't happened and aren't contemplated to happen. They're worried about scope sales when the company is hiring to staff a growing mainline operation. I can't possibly believe that could be true, especially since we've been through the Bucking Bar/Ad Lib and Slowplay show before (twice).

Oh, and Mesaba is still scheduled to furlough this fall as their Saab's get parked...

To all...make your input to your elected reps if you want to seek to maintain or cancel a flow with Compass and/or Mesaba. They will be the ones that direct what happens. The sky is not falling.
