Default Who's folding first?

The death spiral continues!

Will ZW's cargo conversions keep the 200 fleet alive?

Will C5's new contract open the floodgates for CFI's?

Will 9E staple their seniority list?

Will MQ unload all their 145's?

Will UA give all of G7's 550's to ZW?

Will the death of the Dash-8 save QX?

Will YV pilots get off welfare?

Will AA unload the MQ 145's to HIA and begin the PT renaissance?

Will OH become the home for Aussie Expats?

Will YX's billboards convince potential DEC's?

Will 3M transition to all Amazon feeder ops?

Will OO become the country's largest RJ leasing company?

The future is bright!

?? are you stuck like 2 years in the past? you do realize YV is one of the top two paying regionals, right? Line holder FOs there can break 120k-140k/year easy.

edit: he is in fact stuck 2 years in the past, as this is an old thread and I just realized that LOL

Yeah CMR, XJT, and ASA were the best regionals back in the day (for those who could tolerate living east of the Rockies).

it won’t be a WO folding up…. Merging and consolidating maybe, but not closing shop. That will be GoJet, Silver, or Air Wiskey next. I think silver is already having not just staffing staffing trouble, but money trouble too

https://simpleflying.com/silver-airw...eviction-vote/

They struck a deal afterwards and are staying, but clearly they’re having money issues.


Best contract loses was under the old paradigm of lowest bidder gets the work. Now it’s who can actually complete the flights. That means staffing.
