I realize that was sarcazim, but yes. I do expect CMR to be around then. However, my point was more that I think regional jet ops will be much better once the new terminals will be built.

It will be quite some time before Delta and the Port Authority build a new terminal. Delta will continue just to slap duct tape and bandaids on the this terminal at JFK for AT LEAST another 10 years.

Look how poorly the decision to close concourse C in CVG worked out. From a roomy, fairly modern terminal to a cramped, small terminal, where the passengers still don't get jetbridges.

ok read a couple of post about W2's... seriously kinda wonder about our pilot group and their ability to use resources. why not call the 2550 number to find out... that might help... Also if you have ever filed a tax return before you know W2's have to be post marked by Jan. 31 unless it falls on a weekend and then it must be post marked by the following Monday. In this case that would be what boys and girls???? Feb. 2 thats right. Wow guys Wow. What are we complaining about today now???

Maybe I didnt want to talk to anybody over in the GO. I know they have to be postmarked by Jan 31, I may be a pilot, but that doesn't automatically make me retarded. Is it a crime to ask my pilot brethern if any of them have received theirs yet? Maybe you should contribute to the endless complaining on here or just stay out of it.

I don't know about 10 years, but I agree the closure of C is still quite odd to me. I wouldn't be suprised to see operations downsized until there is a jetbridge for every airplane in cvg. Maybe that's what they meant when they said a jetbridge on every plane? Hahahaha

Well, here's to hoping that Delta wins the injunction. If they do, I expect other airlines will drop Mesa. Look for a bunch of RFP's to go out should Delta win.
They may not award Comair any more flyng, but don't let that stop your career progression. Cheers!

Did anyone see the memo over at Pinnacle? The days of the Legacy airline purchasing RJ's and looking to the lowest bidder to fly them are probable coming to an end. Now, the Legacy will go with the regional that owns their own equipment.
