Yikes. Then what will we see? Solid flows to Alaska, with their 737s operating out of Medford and Pullman?

...they have to announce the jet stuff per SEC guidelines folks. Until they ink a deal with an OEM for the jets and the news is released per SEC guidelines, there's nothing to be shown. Finance 101 here...

Horizon should be announcing the jet order by the end of 1Q2016.

What is going on with the "seat lock" in the Q400? This is something I don't understand yet. If they are ordering some 30 jets, who is going to crew them? Everyone with a seniority number of "X" and above in 2017? Why would we be locked into the Q?

Sorry, the N for Newb is still stuck on my head.

Folks, curious about the current DOH of the most junior FO that has been assigned a CA slot for April.

Also, what is aprox upgrade time as of now for a new hire, provided the FO already meets all the requirements?

Much appreciated.

The two year upgrade they keep saying to lure you here is a lie. There has been very little movement here. Our last 3 bids have had zero movement. If you came here right now it would be around 3-4 years.
