If Mesa gets these 30 ships then what’s UA going to use as leverage during the negotiations to park 165 50-seaters that are under guaranteed contracts that extend past the 1/1/2016 deadline. Mesa has none to offer up but XJT has over 260. Oh well IDK, I thought anyone who gets these E-175s would remove their 50-seaters at a 2:1 ratio but SkyWest signed a contract that parks none. Although there is an understanding that the contracts on 40 of our 50-seaters will not be renewed when they expire sometime over the next 2 years. But that’s only 40………..
Currently there are 585 total UAX ships + the 40 E-175s SkyWest is getting + the 30 E-175 UA has an RFP out on – the 40 CR2s SkyWest will be removing = 615 UAX ships. By 1/1/2016 that number must be reduced not to exceed 450. 615 UAX ships – 450 = 165 that must be removed. |

Makes sense. Give the worst performer, operationally speaking, the new flying.

I'm pretty sure United's worst operational performer is Express Jet. Nice try though. perhaps you meant "contractually" instead of "operationally?" I'm not gonna defend it totally because it is what it is. Which is crap, but united seems to like it and so say the numbers. :rolleyes: |

It might be wise to consider if a company will maybe be around in 10 or 20 years. I knew a guy who fly for Ransome, Pan Am Express, TWA, Pam Am then ATA and finally a B747 Capt at World. He ended up laid of a World at age 61 with 24,000 hours. Finally accepted a job at a big regional to finish his career out of EWR.
