Some are coming from the Horizon 700's that were coming offline from the DL flying. I think there were around a half-dozen of these.

Didn't see anything in the SkyWest Inc memo that said it was DL CR2's being removed, it only said ExpressJet CR2s. So, I assume all CR2s and the AA op will be replaced with CR7s.

That is correct. That was announced previously. Those CR2's will be replaced with CR7's on a one-for-one basis with an additional CR2 in DFW for EAS (not sure where all of the CR7's are coming from -- some additional will be added from an unknown source at this time). But that won't equate to a net loss like the loss of the DL CR2's. Should be a net loss of around 32 CR2's system wide.

O.K. thanks for responding, but I am slightly confused. A few posts back, someone mentioned something about mass attrition, if they are getting rid of the 200's and folks are leaving, because of the reduction of airplanes, why the need for increased hiring? Also, with ASA getting rid of planes, just how much of an issue are they going to have recruiting folks?

I can't speak for the poster, but I think he was remarking in sarcastic hyperbole.
All bets are off at this point. The only news is that we are losing 37 CRJ-200's. No news yet on aircraft to replace them. That being the case, it is highly unlikely that there is any need for new pilots. No official word from the hiring department though.

Sorry. I wasn't saying that you (New Guy 007) were being sarcastic. I thought the other poster (Bozo) was being sarcastic.
My assessment is that with the only news being reported is that we are losing aircraft, it doesn't make sense to hire. It's just what I have deduced. OTOH, I am just a cog in the system. I don't know anything that is privileged information.
That being said, I just got a text from a friend that said the hiring department was informed to keep hiring. So there's that...
