The reality is that Parker has stated on multiple occasions that AAG wants each WO to operate a different type of aircraft.
You say there is an email. Post it. Until then it's just more rumors going against the facts that have already been stated by the head guy himself.

I'd wager a guess that AA would prefer to eventually drop republic all together and not have any 50 seat acft at their regionals. Therefore PDT getting 175s

So back on track regardless if PDT gets 175 or not. Which by the way it doesnt matter to me at all.
Is it safe to say that PDT is a better place to be than Envoy? Regardless of the bases? Or they will both be the same?

Envoy is good and flows a lot of pilots right now..
PDT is good too.. I can complain but I'm overall positive.. In less than two years I'm I'm in the top 50 percent of the seniority list.. I'm 180 numbers from flowing.. That puts me around 2 ish years out right now.. Maybe a touch more. I'm sure lucky I pulled the trigger when I did. I'm flying a 35 seat turboprop as an fo making over 65k this year.. Unheard of.. and enjoy half the month off., I can upgrade if I want..
If you live by phl.. PDT.. If you live by Lga.. Envoy.. Mid west envoy..

Why were 170/175 added to the current pdt cba through a LOA?
Why was the FAA informed that pdt will be adding the type in meetings last winter?
This will be the 170/175 flying out of phl which is all brickyard.
I don't know why some people get so sensative about pdt adding them. It's just another plane, that we all fly for c level rates. Republic and American do not have the best relationship right now, further with their new labor rates, I'm sure the flying agreements just signed between American and Republican are not very favorable.
They are coming.. or maybe I am wrong? Doesn't matter to me I'm on the dash till she dies.

We all just see that the only "proof" you have can't be verified.
And since it flies in the face of what Parker said at the town hall meetings, it would be foolish for anyone to believe it until more corroborating evidence is put forth.
If I only had a dollar for every time someone told me a chief pilot, vp flight ops, school house instructor or FAA inspector was informed of something BIG!

This just isn't a pdt flying, or psa etc, it's all American. They have done this or will do it at other hubs. Less flying bigger aircrafts.

American is realigning is flying at all hubs. They are trying to build efficiency of the mainline fleet while also softening the blow off the pilot shortage in the regionals.

American will trim some flights as part of 'rebanking' its PHL hub

I can't personally speak for schedules at envoy but PDT is improving. Although losing two banks of arrivals and departures is actually putting us into unknown land right now. Management has asked us to bear with them while they work it out.
