WOW!! You are even more stupid than I thought, this whole time I thought you were just messing with everyone just for fun and because you were angry, but I'm realizing you truly believe yourself.. First off, no need to use "your" referring to me because I am no longer an Xjt pilot. Secondly, HOU757 is correct, you need to read up on what the deal was with Skywest... what it means is Skywest gets priority for "NEW DUAL-CLASS A/C IF THE OPPORTUNITY ARISES" That means NEW EXPANSION of dual-class aircraft! Transferring Dual-class A/C from one regional to another regional is NOT EXPANSION! So, when you say Large RJ's are scoped out, yes they are...So if Ual has NEW expansion of large RJ's because lets say UAL pilots relief of scope then yes, Skywest will be first in line to the first 25 dual A/C added into Ual feed. Ual pilots will not relieve scope, so there will be no additional dual-class expansion... Ual management is relying on UAL pilots relief of scope in this next contract, he is sadly mistaken. So you are wrong... if lets say for example Mesa contracts are up and 60 175's become free over the next 3-5yrs... this is not NEW flying, this is up to Ual where they want to place them! It's Ual's right to place existing A/C wherever they want... You are confused and mistaking "New expansion" with current flying that can be transferred. GO BACK TO SLEEP FOOL!!!

Reallocating 70/76 seat flying is just as easy. At Republic we are covering for not only Expressjet out of Houston but PSA out of CLT...

You don't have a plane on property. "Operated by Expressjet" is one of the weakest argument I have seen in a while. That is literally the easiest thing to change on these planes as the paint stays the same and you slap a new sticker over Expressjet with the new carrier name.

Skywest took delivery of Alaskan E175's that were slated for Horizon two years ago...

Expressjet does have a CEO who owns half the company.

At the last company he led, he left in a place where they are an all-jet fleet, forecast to double in size, and have a much stronger pilot base than they used to.

This isn't to say things are going to be as predicted at Expressjet; but the naysayers are reaching quite a bit.

XJT is getting 175’s. As a New hire you will want to avoid it for about 6 months.. proving runs, IOE, ect. Unless you don’t want to fly then take it..

They are officially being delivered next week on the 22nd I am told, so let's just come back next week and talk LOL Do you honestly think Ual is going to invest a huge stake in a company only to give planes to another company?? The plan is to make Xjet the main 175 operator. Do you think United and these investors want to hurt their own investment and don't like money?!!! LOL I think its safe to say that the 1st of many 175's beyond the "original 25" will be delivered April 22nd. Im pretty sure these people at United like their money... and I believe there is a staffing plan coming, everything happens in baby steps or incrementally

Is that the kookaid they are serving up down in Houston?? So United is just going to simply do away the 175 with every other regional because they “heavily” invested in XJT? United has proven to be a carrier that cares simply for keeping their regional network diversified so it’s a constant battle for the lowest bidding...Ever wonder why Mesa is still around with their awful reliability? United spent the price of one narrow body jet on XJT which is hardly an Investment on their part. You are sounding like some of the Comair guys that thought Delta was going to make them their preferred regional. And remember what happened to them?

I wouldn’t bank on XJT being the “main” 175 operator. And for your career you shouldn’t... get in. Get out..
