Losing both Delta and United flying.

Endeavor folks are being told that Delta is going to start transferring 4 700s per month from GoJet to Endeavor beginning in June.

Also heard from someone at TSA holdings that the United flying is being terminated.

probably less... just ask someone in MX that’s in the know or records they have to start gathering up everything for A/C XFer

We’ll have to wait and see how this plays out. But I will also say that several higher ups at Delta have publicly said that their plans regarding their regional airlines are to reduce to three. I have heard that GoJet and Compass are not in the surviving three. But again, it’s Delta we’re talking about. And you never really know who they’re going to $h!t on next

I hope I am not coming across snarky, just curious.... you have actually had this conversation with someone who is “in the know”? It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if it is true, but again, this rumor has been making its way around for years. (Although this is the first time I heard United wanted out...)

Endeavor can’t train enough pilots to staff more planes and keep up with attrition.

Oh really? Are you sure about that? Endeavor is fat on pilots now and is parking some 200’s. If more planes were to come at a reasonable trickle, like they do to every airline, it wouldn’t be much of a problem
