Sounds like people around you need to start ducking. I'm pretty sure SkyWest is getting em all. I'm surprised none went to Republic but I bet SkyWest tossed out a cheap undercut to get them.

Big U likes it cheap. Anchors the rising cost (old whipsaw).

Temporary move till UA moves the 175s in house.

Here’s your quote.

No, I did not. Because I was referring to the planes that Republic lost to XJT, then to Skywest.

Not to mention the latest MESA birds.

How can you lose what you never had?

Again, YX did not lose any aircraft.

There’s no such thing as a 5.5 year flow for new hire at a Envoy, that’s for the 2016 new hires, and then flow works is way back up to 8-9 years for everyone hires after.

This is what they kept saying a year ago. Its now 7.5 years for a late 2018 hire, and still dropping fast.
It's s not 5.5 years but it's not 9 years either.

Republic lost three UAX bids in a row for additional aircraft and flying.

At least your other pilots seem to have their heads in the right place and are noticing the pattern.

From what I heard this morning.. the union and the company have come to an agreement on contract negotiations. Not just with rules but on pay a well. The company seems eager to get the deal done now and after seeing this news this its the reason why. Will it work? Who knows until we see what they come out with. Whatever they come with it better be good pay with those commuter hotels and other gains or else the company will see folk leave.
