Most carriers that have both 700s and 900s fly them as one category.

I'd refuse to the fly -7. If they ask, I'd tell them because it wasn't a -9.

In seriousness, hasn't dual qual always been a thorn in 9E's side. I remember the back-n-forths about it during my time.

Yeah but which Eagle? L-Eagle? Soon to be other "owned" eagle (PSA/Peidmont)? Branded Eagle (Skywest, RAH, XJT)?

Ha ha the 7... The way it was explained to me was it wasn't a case of undercutting GoJet because they couldn't bid for it... But I'm sure Pinnacle undercut someone... I mean this is such great news, it almost makes me not care that I missed a mortgage payment last month

haha this is classic. Everyone pilot in the whole industry (for the most part and unless you work there) would LOVE to see G7 take it in the shorts, hopefully now the down grades flow like wine and the 7's go to 'respectable' regionals...

Who knows who's gonna get the planes, but right now word on the street is it will not be GoJet keeping them.

I'm just passing what I've heard... Honestly I could care less if GoJet keeps them or someone else gets them.
