Yeah what is going on with Big Sky by the way? I read they are starting service or started already in november flying Delta Connection. Do you know how many flights they are operating? That would be a shame if they took flying from Comair.

I was in CVG just the other day and saw them there. The flying out of CVG for them is only EAS cities if i'm not mistaking. However they did take some flying from us out of BOS including Fredericton, which used to be one of my favorite overnights.

Yeah I guess EAS is gone now. I kinda understood that they took over the flying for them as well. That sucks they took some flying out of BOS and the Fredericton overnight.

Regional dont take flying from Regional Unless one is Striking and the other fly the routes.. Mainline decides who flies what and when... so dont blame Chapublik, Messa, Big Sky, ect ect.. we are all Pawns

Touché

On a side note, I wasn't really trying to put the blame on anyone or call anyone names. I knew that Delta has Big Sky flying some connection flights out of CVG now and was curious about them.

THey are only flying to like 3 destinations out of CVG, not a big deal. While Big Sky has got some of the routes we used to fly out of BOS, we are doing to traditional ASA routes out of ATL now. CHQ is doing some our MYR now and Freedom took some of the MCO stuff we did. This is all normal stuff. As for 36 airplanes being parked...I havn't heard that. I know that Delta has said it wont used the EMB135 anymore for Delta Connection flights, maybe thats part of it.

You should be able to get CVG pretty quick. Some people have gotten it before even finishing IOE...not a huge wait.

Well that is good news about being able to get CVG relatively quick. I think I may still put in my resume when I finish up with everything... just to give it a shot.

What's the upgrade time looking like at Comair? Last I was told it was 5 to 6 years. Any truth to this?

It is currently 5-6 years, but on the page before this one of the guys said it might eventually drop to about 3 years which would be good. I'm assuming you graduated from EKU? I just graduated from there in May!
