when I think you are sending someone to intentionally spy on me or see what I have to say about you to pass it on to you, you are darn right I'm gonna embellish it to make you p.o. I thought I made that perfectly clear. Admit it.....you came across as a donkeys butt to 95% of the people on here, and burned a lot of bridges. Don't get butthurt over it now.

Problem is, you thought wrong. I never sent anyone to you to see what you would say about me. So that was all just you. That person had approached you without any knowledge of me.

For those considering starting the career at Endeavor keep in mind regionals constantly change. Choose the regional that will give you the fastest opportunity to get flying. Experience will be important both left and right seat. In a couple of years you will see the minimum requirements for PIC time fall away. Also with all the hiring there will be movement and Delta wants Endeavor to succeed. Some might say why not improve percentage in SSP, this is more complicated. I think current percentage is better than it would be if you were applying off the street, a lot better. Movement will come and upgrades will happen the doom and gloom types want to scare you away from endeavor since they have an axe to grind.

On the XJT Wikipedia page there is a aircraft listing that states that 12 of their 28 CRJ900s are "Leased" from Endeavor Air.

Who owns the other 16 ?

What effect will a TA "NO" vote have on their "Delta" fleet status ?

I would imagine Delta owns them. They also have some of the Comair planes Delta owns. As far as their fleet plan a buddy of mine says its the normal scare tactics.

Better percentage huh... You mean for senior CA, middle of the pack CA, current CA being downgraded to FO or current FOs? Because the way SSP affects those groups is night and day in some cases.

As for the movement, upgrades and such... You are aware that 9E has announced a fleet reduction to 81 airplanes right? This will leave a surplus of several hundred pilots; let me guess, you're hoping majors hiring and FO attrition will cushion that, right? Big gamble there by wanting to come to 9E as a fresh 2013 new hire with no seniority in that situation.

No axe to grind, just trying to bring the coffee a little closer so every body can get a good whiff...

I think we are all aware of the current fleet plan, I along with others are cautiously optimistic about our futures. Optimism is healthy, reality is scary. I'm not ready to give up yet. There is no use in speculation, but in a few months we should have a good idea which road we'll be on. As far as I'm concerned Endeavor will be just as good as any place once the concession train plows through this industry.

Further, the concept of "concessions for an unqualified interview" is terrible on the face of it.
The flood gates open up for ASA after the flows are exhausted. Which is classic because they don't have to take concessions to get that.
