RAH/F9 et al, Single Carrier Status Announced
#11
My question for you F9 guys is what does this mean for you? One certificate? Transition from one Certificate to the other by bid period or bid posting? If that is the case that definition may have far reaching implications?

Alternatively, if Frontier were to grow in a similar fashion to what United did in the 90's, I have gone from expecting to retire as a moderately senior 747 captain with 80 pilots senior to me, to retiring as a reserve 777 captain with 600 pilots ahead of me.
But at least we're making money now. Oh...never mind.

There will probably be no combination of certificates. Where it impacts us is that we were hired out of an RJ captain seat (in most cases) into the Airbus with the expectation of movement up to senior Airbus captain one day. Now, depending on what happens to the fleet, our expectation is somewhere between indefinite career stagnation while RAH pilots bypass us, to downgrade back to RJ captain or FO.

That is kind of what I assumed.

It's business 101: Outsource your work to your competition so as to fund their growth.
So I'd say replace "is now" with "has been" so as to say "Doesn't this mean that Shuttle America has been a direct competitor of DAL?"
