true, i stand corrected. That's prob one benefit of the ole prop. We can go low. I see you guys at the 30 block waiting it out a lot. Can't wait to have some new friends at the A gate circus. You've never seen true inefficiency and total incompetence until you've flown out of "A"

Desperately looking for people so bad they're hiring at 300hrs and upgrading as soon as someone hits mins. Overstaffed places do that all the time! That's why UPS is taking guys with their commercial cert. in pocket and the multi scheduled!!!
I wish I upgraded at 1500 hours. I was hired with about that much time I haven't upgraded yet, but good luck to all those who have. Maybe, when i upgrade, if I ever upgrade I might get to fly with your 300 hours buddy. P/S Have you looked at the mins for Jetblue, US Airways etc, in a few years, they will all be heading that direction. Commercial cert in pocket, multi scheduled and Tuition for last year of college paid. |
Unfortunately like the Frontier stuff and JetBlue, looks like this is only a two week deal
Im still happy becuase My EWR-MCI turn was cxld and I still got paid 6.5hrs :) |
Be careful. If you get on an XJT plane, you've been with every operation that plane has ever been with.

Here's the official word
The United Express team is working closely with our partners to provide replacement flying aircraft during the Spring Break travel period. In anticipation of the high load factors, we've signed a contract with ExpressJet Airlines, Inc., one of the world's largest operators of regional aircraft, to provide three Embraer ERJ145 aircraft from March 12-29.
· ExpressJet is a new flying carrier for us. They have provided similar short-term capacity to other airlines and we are confident in their ability to provide efficient and reliable regional jet service for UAX. · ExpressJet will be flying 20 flights per day carrying approximately 1,000 customers, and will operate into Dulles with service to Savannah, Pittsburgh, Huntsville, Jacksonville and Charleston, South Carolina. In order to be available during our peak demand period, the aircraft will be flown in ExpressJet livery. Not quite what I expected, but maybe the beginnings of a more productive relationship with United. |

No official word yet, but maybe 5-10 airplanes out of either ORD or IAD????
Don't think it is a long term deal, but I guess its better then under-utilized airplanes http://www.planebuzz.com/2008/02/det...g_contine.html Hey Saab, I am betting this is to cover the PP performance from Mesa. You guys may be keeping it, mesa is crumbling as we speak from what I hear. |
