Maybe something else is brewing in Pedro’s kettle.

IMO,

When we were 60/40 145/175 fleet, I think the company put all extra pilots on the 145 (via new hires). We're on the way to 60/40 175/145 and I think the new plan is all extra pilots on the 175 going forward. Expect a deep reserve list on the 175 even when things recover.

I don't disagree with you except that I feel this is poor staff planning. They should split surplus pilots proportionately between the fleets. Or better yet, just send them back to their flight schools. Cadets are not union pilots and the last thing we need is more BFs around here.

Enjoy doing the same flying YX did in MIA, on the same exact routes, on the same exact aircraft, but making less pay.

As if Envoy pilots had any say in the matter. Envoy gets their marching orders from the same people Republic does. Redirect your anger.

worse, literally coming from a company that wouldn't even exist except to fly somebody else's regional routes.

Yeah because we have any control over what flying we get, not to mention this statement coming from a Republic pilot. The irony is thick.
