The 200s are done....sooner than later.
There are 6 remaining that haven't been painted. Who cares why they haven't been yet?

Go back to being a troll, if in fact you never actually stopped.

Because the old paint falling off and the unpainted bondo all over the aircraft isn't exactly great to get into...nor is it any less embarrassing than already getting in a 200...and knowing that the passengers already hate them.

plus they suck to fly, the systems operate like **** and they need to go away.

Better than ignorant bravado.

Since you seem unwilling to educate yourself on labor law maybe you should read about Gen Custer instead.

We are tired of hearing what we can't do, I'm only interested in what I can do. You're too close to the company, you are obviously suffering from some sort of coziness or Stockholm syndrome. You need to consider your own actions in this mess and possibly resign from the union if you can't help.

The moment you started thinking that you could somehow be partners with the company is where you failed. It's not a partnership, its adversarial. They're just playing you. The contract is all that separates us from them, in any airline.

Get to work or get lost.

Agreed they look like crap. I don't really care of the reasoning though. Maybe they'll be the ones parked, or it could be the paint shops are backed up with all the US AIR/Express birds that need repainted. Who knows and who cares?

lmao...being over limited on the limitations is a joke.

not a 172. not by a long shot.
but they are about as hot as a 172.

interestingly enough, i got numbers the other night in DCA with no flex because of our weight, that was a first.

its horribly under powered. tough to make cruise sometimes. I would say 90% of the time ATC reassigns you a new cruise (read:lower).

It's just frustrating to operate. Embarrassing from a customer service stand point. I think 60% of my flights in it end with a write up of some kind. The newest one I see is OVBD COOL everytime you close the door, goes away, but that isn't the point is it?


Sorry, rant over.

I like flying the 200. From a passenger standpoint it's awful.

Except for the write ups we say the same thing about the 321. Transcons at FL320. Yay for a crappy ride for 400 miles because we can't top it.
