All the 200's scheduled for us for July and August have officially gone to skywest...they will get the rest.

We can't take 5-6 900s per month without parking 3-5 200's per month just due to pilot staffing, we can't staff that amount of growth.

We can staff about 10 more 9s but after that we need a good recruiting tool to help attract more pilots. A new contract, more two class flying, and an ATL900 base would go a long way to do that.

Will 9E then have a 200 bid, a 700 bid and a 900 bid? Or will they combine the 7 & 900's for a bid?

The 7&9 will be combined I'm sure, they are so similar.

I've been at the school house for a week...several instructors confirmed that on a conference call last week they were asked how fast can everyone become qualified to teach the 900.

I heard that they have a back log of new hires waiting on the -900 sims. I'll know more next week when I interview.

The July 10th class has everything from a 5 day to a two week wait for 900 sims. Not too bad. About half the class is going to Phoenix for sims.

Hope nobody was counting on that $100 performance bonus, another fine New York meltdown in progress... I'd bet we have a better chance at seeing profit sharing than a full payout for a quarterly performance bonus anymore with all the chaos New York is now causing us multiple times a week.

I'd take ATL ops any day over the daily New York debacle.

I was in Phoenix recently and they just installed a brand new 900 sim. It's beautiful. Instructors in MSP said there's another 900 sim coming to CAE in MSP as well. They're expecting some heavy growth.

When they begin to pull the 200 from NY is there any ideas to which base they'd pull out first/quicker? LGA or JFK? I'm seat locked for a year in LGA and would love to get displaced to the 900.
