I have seen with my own eyes an internal AAG staffing projection spreadsheet. It did not account for the remaining 700s being transferred to PSA from Envoy. So take that for what you will. I do believe our growth is done. I too have heard the rumors of AAG wanting PSA to close CVG but I've heard strong arguments for and against the idea so who really knows what will happen. I think honestly if they close a base it won't be to open another new one, it will just be to simply close it. An inability to attract new hires and eventual contraction will be the name of the game in the next couple of years at most of the regionals. It's already beginning at some.

They're (AAG) gonna keep what they can staff at the Wholly owneds for the cheap price they have already locked in via concessions. Any excess capacity the wholly owned can't staff will be put out to bid to the other American eagle carriers.

yes they will put the bid out for others and these other feeders pay more to their pilots and will charge aag a higher fee for the feed. the extra fee payment's to these other feeders will be paid from the savings of the w/o's.
flow for low pay.

I've been told the same thing. Back in April, I brought up these concerns...the unreliability of various hotel wifi servers, the lack of security on those same servers and the pitiful wifi reception in CLT. I asked if AAG was at all concerned about these issues and the answer was "apparently not."
Now, it seems they are concerned.

Crew room wifi isnt PSA IT's project, it's mainline AA. Its the same story with Envoy and Piedmont.
October 4th is the day we should see an faa approval for the efb.

Acually, is the other way around. First to chose are the others, and the WO's gets the crums...

I have been using hotel and airport WiFi for more than 2 years to finish my masters degree program online. I always travel with my laptop, and use the internet for at least a couple hours each night. I have never had a problem with the wifi at any hotel or airport. Period. You can easily update your charts. There are no issues here at all.
This is just people being whiny brats. Be grateful that we have ipads and no longer have to update paper charts.
Pilots have a bad history of complaining about everything, wether it is justified or not. We cry wolf over every little thing to the point that no one listens to us anymore. This is just another example of this. We are our own worst enemy. If we would stop complaining about all of the stupid things, and just concentrated on 1 or 2 issues, then things might get fixed.
Stop looking for problems where they don't exist.
Grow up and show some maturity. Figure it out and solve the problem.
