...not sure why people believe this or continue to hold out in hopes of getting the 175. when half of the fleet is transferred to ORD in september, there will be a displacement bid and guess what, new hires/jr guys will be displaced and will most likely end up on the crj or 145. stop wasting time and get that seniority locked in.

That would be recruiting suicide for this place.

I am not saying that it won't end up there eventually, but September is a non-starter for me as we don't have the crews or the aircraft to send half the fleet there.

As for your displacement idea, no way. It would slam the door shut on recruitment as word would spread like wildfire that they are doing it.

I don't see your scenario working out, at least not in the time frame you are saying. I could be wrong however, if I did somehow miss this news.

I'm not in the know on this whole what bases are opening and what equipment is moving where. So let's say the 175 goes to ORD in September. Soon their will be a vacancy sent out and people will bid it and get awarded their CA positions. I don't see how you get a displacement out of this. The only displacement that is going to happen is when the CRJ leaves.

The training center wouldn't be able to keep up with equipment changes of a displacement. That was part of the most recent LOA to incentivize base transfers with 10 hrs override.

With sooooo may new instructors at the training center, no wonder why its hard to keep up. My check airman had a hard time using the sim.
