Funny I see many CRJ200s in AE colors? Where'd that flying come from? Those guys worry they essentially stole flying from AE?

Let alone how about all you who gave up your longevity and seniority to Comair pilots who were the demise of Gojets and a made up Compass growth? Yeah y'all are the definition of hypocrites.

I seem to see a lot of 700/900s with CA tails. Funny theyre not Comair guys flying them.

when did we start referring to a CRJ900 as a 'nine'?

I wonder how the Delta 'nine' drivers would feel about that.

So...would or would not a net loss of 5 airframes be a net loss of 25 captain positions?

2007ish.

And its a joke now just like it was then (okay, some entitled RJ9 FOs didn't think it was a joke), which is why I put it in quotations.

Wow that sounds fantastic, except most people have all those and more already. Did you go buy your new car yet since you'll be upgrading tomorrow?

I noticed you didn't include "being embraced" by your USAirways "older brothers" in that. We'll see how that 4 mainline hires a month works out. They only have to interview 25% of what they need from PSA so I guess (according to your numbers) that means they'll be hiring 16 pilots a month from now on. They'll probably get the other 12 from TS or SKW or whatever name they draw out of a hat.

I guess that list was supposed to be impressive? I'll give you that you don't have the worst contract in the industry, but along with the new TA, a polished turd is still a turd.
