guarrrdddddd.
but admittedly, I haven't looked much at skywest, as it seems their movement in the company is not as competitive (or so i think), and as far as the 170 goes, the airplane doesn't play a big role in the selection process.
thanks tho!

Envoy Jr base is ORD. Management is saying that the 30 e-145 that AAG sent to TSA and Xjet will start coming back next year.

The flow is good for your back pocket, apply like everybody else to the majors.

By January we should start sending 25 to 30 pilots to AA, seniority will start improving and the list will be moving faster. Good luck with your research.

If you can stand to live in the 4th world that is ORD SKW should be a slam dunk.

Ord is a small stagnant base for Tsa. Especially if you plan on upgrading. If Ord is what you want I'd go Skywest. Don't know much about envoy other than we had their FOs come here for the quick upgrade.

According to one of the union reps on eaglelounge, we've been told to expect 30 flows for January :) 17 have already been given a class date for the first class in January. Lot's and lot's of movement heading this way...FINALLY.

Also, it was stated the 15 from TSA and the 15 from XJT were coming back as early as this spring. Still no official announcement, though.

We just installed new software for w&b. Plus we are opening an rdu base, so I doubt we are giving flying back. We were told if we can staff the AA flying we have the possibility of getting more envoy planes.

Don't hate the player. He's just stating the facts. I've been present when management and the union stated they were coming back. Does that mean they are for sure? Of course not. Things change quite frequently with AAG. Just wait and see.

Hey waker92. I'm relatively new still at TSA and got ORD based. Took me 5 months to get based here and I was STL for the first 4. Feel free to PM with any questions you have and I'd be more than willing to talk to you about what I know/my experience.

There's movement at envoy? Lol. If you were on the TSA boat you're a year too late. 50 sweaters are in jeopardy at all airlines...TSA is all 50 seaters.
