The guy I'm flying with claims we got 9 airplanes from Endeavor last month. That's news to me. Can anyone confirm or deny?

SkyWest got some of them and they are total garbage heaps.

Some of them didn't even have the flaps 8 mod and the cockpits are a f-------g cess pool. Hard to act professionally when your plane smells like a hockey locker room.

But Inc. gets there money and that's all that matters!

Me too. All new interior, our office too. Details like seat adjustments, parking brake action and keyboard were all as good as I have felt.

If we did, it's not growth, cuz believe me, the company would HYPE the hell out of that to show we don't suck and to attract new FOs

must be to replace leases expiring.

I was seriously starting to consider what will or won't make news around here these days. With every update of the main story on the homepage of xjt.com, I get that "drowning man will clutch at a straw" feeling. At least we're finally getting new checklists!

So, we've got that going for us, which is good.

I enjoy the smell of a hockey locker room....but that comes from playing hockey for close to 20 years.

They must be blowing some heavy smoke up people's assets to get them to come here....ZERO Movement, ZERO new aircraft, parking airplanes and closing bases. I am genuinely interested how they got people into a new hire class...

Ive spent many years playing hockey as well. Locker rooms smell like sweaty men. If that what excites you....

Nope, it's the sport. But then again, when you've won state and national championships, and your name is in the hockey hall of fame in Toronto, hockey tends to be a little bit more fun.
