Partially that was because they staffed the flying largely from a RDU outstation base. It wouldn’t surprise me if they tried the same thing just this time with RIC instead. GoJet didn’t make it long in NYC until they got transferred to doing pretty much only DTW ops, possibly the easiest hub in the Delta system. Similarly, Mesa/Freedom failed so hard in NYC they got their Delta operation moved to CVG until the lawsuit cancelling their CPA was complete.

It doesn’t seem like United has historically cared about customer service and experience on their regional product, but this seems to be changing. I give GoJet maybe 2 years tops in the NYC market this time

We just do what we’re told. United gives us a schedule, we fly it.

Delta gave GoJet NYC flying. They did it so poorly that Delta transferred most of their operation to DTW. Their performance got better but not enough to prevent the entire CPA being cancelled.

There are regionals with a strong track record of success in NYC flying (see Endeavor and Republic). Trans States Holdings has never been successful here.

Okay that was Delta flying. United and Delta operate out of two completely different airports.

When we’re delayed out of EWR, it’s not our fault. It’s ATC.

United wants the 550 in EWR cause it’s premium market is bigger than ORD

Our on time performance is actually not that bad out of EWR with the one runway they’re using

Even OO almost got the hang of it. (Kidding! Kind of. They figured it out after they blew it with the O'Hare shuttle.)

Part 135 PIC in a turbojet counts. Doesn't matter if it'd a citation 1 or a g650.

Doesn’t count unless it’s scheduled. Example: Contour, JSX.

On demand (charter): Netjets, XOJET, wheels up — do not count.

135.243(a)(1): Of a turbojet airplane, of an airplane having a passenger*seat configuration, excluding each crewmember seat, of 10 seats or more, or of a multiengine airplane in a commuter operation as defined in part 119 of this chapter, unless that person holds an airline transport pilot certificate with appropriate category and class ratings and, if required, an appropriate type rating for that airplane.

You guys stick out like a sore thumb, and it is frankly really pathetic. You need to put your efforts into kissing ass, and doing coffee and food runs for your PIC. Oh, and also stepping up your game to impress people outside of your circle that you are a pilot at a major carrier.

You know you guys are made fun of by your peers don't you? If you haven't figured that out yet, you will eventually.

p91.1053 is fractional and doesn’t apply and 135.243 clearly says 10 or more or commuter(scheduled) operations. The last bit about ATP states that if you are flying 10 or more, or scheduled you require an ATP which qualifies you fo fly pic with 10+ or commuter.

135.243 (a) (1) Of a turbojet airplane, of an airplane having a passenger-seat configuration, excluding each crewmember seat, of 10 seats or more, or of a multiengine airplane in a commuter operation as defined in part 119 of this chapter, unless that person holds an airline transport pilot certificate with appropriate category and class ratings and, if required, an appropriate type rating for that airplane.

You are wrong because there’s a comma after
“(1) Of a turbojet airplane”. It’s a common misunderstanding. There is a memo from the FAA floating around that should provide some background and clear it up for you.

a, or, b, unless c. How the commas are used.

135.243 c allows anyone to fly a jet without an ATP. Notice how 135.243c isn’t listed In part 121 pic requirements.
