"For example, aircraft that come off line with one carrier may have opportunity to be repurposed with another carrier at a better rate. We are bidding for flying among the regionals, and delivering strong performance positions us well." - AM
Minus the proofreading at the end.
A clue for what is to come. Also notice ASA has not had a displacement bid for IAD in a while. Signs of a mass bid. Those looking for upgrades that are within double digits good news. Those looking to get in, do not be fooled. It will not be massive growth, and there might be some reshuffling within XJT. Check back next week folks.

For god sake man, 7 years and still an FO with no upgrade in sight and yet you stay at a regional anyway? Maybe you are the problem. Management has you right where they want you. You are a defeated scared little pilot who is unwilling or unable to do what it takes to get out and better your career.

It's not and those birds are probably the oldest flying in the system for us.

I've heard the ERJ may get 20 or so airplanes renewed with UA at better rates.

That's 20 of the current 90 slated to go away.

No, the reason XJT sucks is because it's a regional. None of your annoying bickering is doing anything to better your situation. Management will do as they please despite your mind numbing internet cat fights.

I saw this as well. However, I believe that the pending 9E shedding of 200s might have more to do with us being in limbo at the moment regarding the lack of a displacement bid from IAD. Also, the IAD base officially closes in March 2015, so while that is close, it is still 5+ months away...but yes, I am waiting for an announcement as well...more than likely it will not be groundbreaking, but if we can gain 12+ airplanes to cover to IAD closure that would be great for everyone as the attrition gains made in 2014 will be realized (currently they are not being realized) and much needed upgrades will occur. Attrition is bumping right along as well, which is helping.
