But it is a big deal. When it was announced that United awarded ManAir 25 175’s this board blew up and claimed XJET was the place to be. Some of you went as far as saying that you were going to take MESA’s 175’s within the next year . Take a look back . When United and continental merged that was the downfall of XJET.
As I said, it’s not a big deal TO ME. I didn’t come to fly the 175. Perhaps you left to fly it? Then got you feelbads hurt when it showed up here? Either way I am happy at XJT and if anything this may work to my advantage if it spurs the company to the negotiating table. Rumors are there are negotiations happening now.

Just responding to another one of your belittling responses. Keep putting your foot in your mouth and don’t put words in mine.
I’m on the 145 and didn’t come for it either.
Keep showing how Aviate knows how to pick em....

Doesn’t matter who was awarded what and who gets blue tail 175s, the biggest downside is that a pilot group is out of a job. Second to that is the leverage we gained from being awarded more flying because of it. I have friends at every regional that said they’re having trouble with staffing extra flying. Focusing on us alone you think we can absorb those TSA routes, retrain, and train for growth? All while, the union says wait till October. This had to be precedented, December 12 was the original Letter 2 expiration, and our company and the puppet master UA said they have it under control. I’m not the one to say our company is the best because I’ve been ok with flying, short reserve and so on. But swift action
Is needed in order to secure whatever we have.
