This is true. Gojet is not CATII. If the planes are in decent shape which I’m sure they are. The biggest hurdle will be getting them signed off for CAT II Ops.

Do you know how Hulas makes all his money? It's not off the back of pilot labor anymore. Long live the speed tape.

N668CA and N655CA have completed their functional flight test and ferry to ATL yesterday (May 21, 2019). They have been entered into service a whole 17 days ahead of schedule. Kudos to the mx team! Can one assume that these weren't as bad as we thought or is the mx team just that good? Looks like it took just about a month and a half to complete conformity.

According to the latest email, these will be used as operational spares until early June.

I'm curious to see when the next RDU-SUX ferry flight will take place.

If anyone has flown any of these airplanes, post the status of them please!

17 days ahead of schedule, you must think that is a good sign to DL and 9E if they were to go forward with the 20 something more 700's.

More planes would be nice... there will be between zero and two new captains in the latest vacancy award.

Isn’t there a few secondaries?

I would like to see MSP grow some, the lines suck unless you have an early 90s hires date.

They aren't filling captain secondaries, and they mostly haven't been for at least the past few vacancies. There are two captain alternates who are currently FOs. That's it.

NH equipment expectations

With the growth expected/ confirmed on the 700/900s what equipment can a new hire expect ? A 700 to fill the upcoming fleet ?

Crj 200 is likely, as those pilots already on the 200 back in 2017 / 2018 have their 18 month seat locks lifted and will want to get in on the growth plane.

^What he said, half the 200 FOs in ATL and ATL are all off seatlock in the next 90 days. A bunch of guys missed the vacancy cutoff by 7 days for 19-02. It’s going to be 200 heavy classes the first few months.
