Where do pilots usually live when based in DTW? Are there nice, safe places near Ann Arbor or Ypsilanti that can be rented for $800 per month or less?

End state of 81 -900's (all here), 56 -200's (at 43 I think currently), plus the above starting with an EMB program Q3/4 2016 and the -700's as the start of 2017. Bloch award ends June 16, 2016 so there is no red tape on the endeavor side for different aircraft types.

At least that's what I have put together through various channels of sources. Time will tell. One thing is for sure, if it's being posted on a message board, enough folks already know to the point where sources aren't exposed.

It's unfortunate that planes are doing the shuffle, but it comes down to performance, control, cost, and what DL wants as an end result.
I understand G7 owns their -900s, I wonder if Delta would keep those flying or would it be a total cessation of G7-DCI flying?

How senior would the EMB go?!

Boy, that'd help with recruiting and upgrade times!

This is a definite possibility.

Follow the SEC documents. Bases other than our current ones have been reviewed in the past and as I've heard the -700's don't change that. The Ejets still have many questions around them, inclusive of where the flying will be and if that would raise the cost benefit or need for another base. It pays the same as the -900, as does the -700, so it won't be as much of a "pay" thing for folks. If there is a new base, that can drive things, but behind that it's QOL overall.

Wow! Good thing for a bankrupt RAH huh?

More intrigued then anything!! Unless you've seen a 170/175 with endeavors name on it because I sure as heck haven't.....so I guess the rumor mill continues. BTW sorry for the BK we went through it to it's not fun.

The boys in the D don't worry about such things. It's a cpl state.

I know where I was just a couple of years ago, on a bus with a Republic pilot sitting next to me bragging about how quick his upgrade was going to be now that they were taking on the Colgan Q's. How quickly things have changed. Also go back and read the Republic thread from when you/they were getting the Q's, if you aren't a believer in karma it will make you one. For the record, I could care less about your crummy e-jets, park them and let mainline fly the routes, that is what I hope happens.
