any news at Silver? New fleet type, new contract pay, growth, upgrade time? Are there people moving to Frontier with the program they have? Saabs efb rnav/gps equipped nowadays, is FLL the most senior base?

Some of the later serial numbered B models had FMS equipped. Most are still /A aircraft. People operating them under part 91 have an STC for a Garmin 400 modification. Seen it in a few different A model Saab's

From what I've heard updrade now is at around 1.5 year. Rumor is they want new Atr's and are actively pursuing a deal but is all talk right now until something becomes official so take it for what is worth. All Florida and Bahamas flying mostly day trips. 3 Florida bases fll, mco, and tpa I believe mco is the most junior but could be wrong. Currently the union and management are in contract talks.

Anyone know what a typical schedule is like for silver. If they are mostly day trips are you working 6 days a week or something crazy like that? also I'm thinking of making the jump from another regional that i currently commute for. Silver would mean no commuting but its a $6 cut hourly. Thoughts?
