I have my application lingering on Airline Apps waiting for me to hit the submit button. About to pull the trigger.

Bring on the haters...


I call BS on this one....

No way would AAG graciously give some of the 700s to PSA then turn around and give us the 900s. This completely goes against their strategy. If anything, they will reduce their 200/100s before any 700/900s come to us.

Also a rumor going around. My OPINION is that the compass 175's will be coming to envoy. When, is a completely other story. It could be next year, it could be 5 years from now. I have no educated guess on that matter. I'm not sure what their contract looks like (and anybody who tells you they do know what it looks like is full of it.)

You can go to the interview. It's not like it used to be, you have one year to pick a class once you have a job offer.

Good luck when you do pull the trigger.

Wouldn't introduction of -900's at Envoy require expending $$$ on manuals, training (even if only differences), computer changes for agents, specific parts for MTX and FAA approval, etc. ?

Seems to me that's a lot of hassle just to add a few seats in some Envoy markets, especially if Envoy is slated to get rid of CRJ's in the future. I suppose it's possible, but doesn't sound likely to me anyway.

I don't buy this rumor, but Since when do they care about wasting money at AA? They waste millions for no reason daily on all kinds of idiotic things. This would be no different if they wanted to do it.

They have an airline with crews current and qualified on the E145 at Envoy. Training, MX, Ops certifcate, trained pilots, everything in place already. So the moron Hashimoto decides its a good idea to waste millions transferring 145's to PDT, who doesn't even fly jets, having to start from scratch and start a whole new operation and program just to do it which is very expensive, time consuming and they don't even have the staffing to do it. Brilliant move. Don't you think that was a hassle?

This company does stupid things every day. I certainly wouldn't put it past them.
