[QUOTE=TalkTurkey;2636780]Yes I'm quoting my own comment. How many pilots does it take to staff 60 A220's? When/If this thing goes live, it will suck up crews from regionals, no doubt. Maybe we ought to work out a flow to this startup.[/QUOTE
We already have a ton of pilots applying. Assuming this new TA passes...JB would be smart to hire EDV pilots. Suck em up !!!

I imagine that our MEC would have found out shortly after that

If the flight schools can get these new electric trainers online soon enough, then the worst of the Pilot Shortage may be averted. If not, I think UAL/AA/DAL will have to hire kids of HS/college age and train them, just like the Mil does.

Mainline flight ops knows about it because they are responsible for this project. Let’s just say its development goes back many, many months. As for the 9E MEC being made aware, I’m not sure when that happened but all stakeholders were briefed when mainline flight ops felt it was the appropriate time.

So the latest CDR pages pushed out on the content locker have all the 9E bases....and EWR...I may be a bit naive (check my sn) but why EWR? Do we operate out of other places that have coded departure routes? Or is that just the most convenient thing to copy and paste from delta?

This isn't new, EWR CDR's have been in the locker for some time now. It's considered a New York airport. It'd be nice to have them for our other hubs, but it's really rare that they are used elsewhere and they are very labor intensive to program everything behind the scenes for us (the company as a whole) to use them. If you have any questions about them, the person to talk (or email) to is the manager of dispatch.

Ask Bill video was interesting. Maybe a text message feauture with scheduling in the future which would be nice. And again confirmed going from 6 to 3 regionals and anticipates some base openings associated with our planned growth.

Endeavor CEO on video to the company. Confirmed Delta's plan to decrease to 3 Regionals and expand 9E from about 30% to 40% share, possibly more, starting next year. Also confirmed that's why hiring is back on already. Wasn't really a secret, but most of us hadn't got the message firsthand. Nice to get it out there officially. Thanks.
