Another grammar nazi

 

No, executed

 

What is the difference between planned hours and projected hours? Shouldn't the flights for January be set in stone? How can they make the lines if flights are still subject to change?

I agree that we are going to be the back up team for what everyone else can't handle in 2016. We've done it the past few months. Maybe that's the "growth" Parker was talking about the other day. Lol, hardly reassuring. Also FYI, Pedro did NOT say we are keeping the CRJ's. I hope that is true, but there's nothing official as of yet.

 

Looks like AA is accelerating the arrival of the E-175s to Envoy. They are delivering more per month than originally anticipated. Revenue service begins in Febuary if I remember correctly.

Also the CRJ-700s look like they are staying, and word is that the 145s sent to TSA & Xjet in 2014 will be returning as well.

Another nugget of information: 360+ pilots will flow to AA in 2016. That is almost every Captain that will flow who will be gone this time next year.

 

Did you need to post for quota or something. This isn't anything new. The email that stated this is over a month old.

 

I'm not posting for you, Nancy. This is for people who don't work at Envoy who want information they wouldn't otherwise have.

Don't like it? Too bad.

 

Careful what you wish for regarding the flow. Who will staff all those aircraft? Thats right, I forget. They will park planes if there are NO pilots to staff them to honor the flow.

Good Luck!

 

Any idea of additional flying coming our way? And anything about better hiring/retention bonuses, now that most other regionals pay more than the WOs?

 

I don't want to start any rumors or pull a "Ric Wilson" and announce things too early even if they are factually correct. So I won't comment on any return flying just yet.

As for bonuses, the answer is no. First because we are having no problem retaining pilots. Since things stabilized around here and now that he flow is a serious thing people are staying.

Second because AA believes that an enhanced flow to AA in under 6 years with no interview will be enough to attract pilots.

In that they are correct. If the flow works and continues to work as we have seen it, Envoy will hire all the pilots they need and more without bonuses.

Bonuses at the Regional level are nice, but the real money is at mainline. Always has been and always will be. If a pilot can flow in under 6 years and be making over 100k that would be more valuable than any Regional bonus.

Well then don't son. Your information is NOT factually correct. Just a bunch of gibberish propoganda. How is life as an Envoy intern by the way?
