Oh and don't forget occurrences. The company love's occurrences on the CRJ side.
U don't have occurrences on the erj side?

If you have a doctor's note, it's not an occurrence.

Someone started a rumor over at FI that we are being sold to Trans States or Delta. Either of those have a 0% probability of occurring. Among more logical reasons, neither have the cash available to buy us, and no one wants our senior, highly paid pilot group. But good forum fodder, I guess.

No just the usual trolling and blind speculation you expect over there. So glad I got grandfathered in, and didn't have to pay to read that crap.

Tony, Delta has the money to buy you. Most likely it could be a cash deal for the big D. But I agree not going to happen. We at Endeavor will get an industry leading contract before that happens. Have a great weekend.

Is Express hiring into the eek at this time or still CRJ only?

Both, you get hired into Indoc then bid based on class seniority in IAH. All based on availability. I'm on the 19th class so seems we're the new beta test for this method.

CRJ side you are limited to 3 occurrences in a 12 month period before they start harassing you and giving you crap about it.

Yeah, I grandfathered in as well. I quit reading FI on a regular basis, but I guess this is worth looking in at purely for entertainment purposes.
