Why? Makes sense to me. They’ll claim a small 700 operation for AMR is too expensive to operate and roll that over to their already large American ops. All the ASA pilots in the mean time slide to ERJs. It seems like a pretty bad business decision to have a different unit operate such a small fleet.

Things are not what they appear to be.

Thank you for that last sentence. I went from 0- to about 75 in the first three

Haha... I aim to please. It's a sad situation at XJT/ASA. The least we could all do is thumb our noses at the jagoffs in Atlanta and St. George, and laugh as this all falls apart. I left a few months ago, and still get the emails advertising red flag. It's only March, summer is going to be painful. It will be interesting to watch the operation sink as the ATL brain trust pretends to rearrange the deck chairs on the ship.

Personally, I think they are primarily concerned about the CRJ side not fulfilling the DAL contract and Inc being held financially liable.
