Thanks for the update.

I'd imagine with the new planes, movement in both fleets is expected as people move over/get hired into the 175.

Are there many senior guys switching to the 175? They must have a good quality of life on the 145 at this point

Paint and be changed. How old is that pic anyway?

The picture was released March 27th. “Delivery” and “flying revenue flights” are not the same thing. Even a person such as yourself must know the difference. Deliveries starting in April, flying the line in June. Does it matter how old the picture is? What exactly is your point?

How does the delivery schedule look like right now? For the 25 175s

The last two or three aircraft will be delivered in January 2020. All others by end of year.

Pure hearsay, but the first guys flying down to Brazil to pick up the first bird leave in about a week to 10 days.

On the CA side it’s very senior. For FO’s it’s junior.

3 a month for the rest of the year? That’s pretty aggressive..When do they plan on parking 145’s due to staffing?

This is why they do the Hogan or whatever other psych evaluation at the United/Delta/FedEx. They want to weed out guys like this. They owe it to the rest of their pilots not to have to fly with Aholes like Melit.

They won’t. XJT is the latest laser pointer in the regional dream. They have enough new hires coming in that they will take -145s out of the desert.
Now go ask your mommy for more Internet time.
