The tail numbers for them will be PQ. This is the type of stuff you find out when you are on reserve and bored.

Let's just hope you guys are able to raise the bar on pay for these fancy 900's.

Horizon Air holds N620QX-N660QX. The CRJ-700s are N600QX-N618QX. I'm not holding my breath on another 40 CR7s. Horizon also owns N170QX-N230QX. These numbers are incredibly cheap to reserve, and airlines often do so even if they have no plans to use them in the near future.

its either that or strike... like i have said before 9e pilots did nothing to get this flying.. we didn't take concessions, give up benefits, or give management an inch.. everytime the told us the place was shutting down if we didn't sign, we didn't.. now look.. 10 year contract with delta and nwa, 68 fo positions available starting the end of january, 15 planes nwa said they were taking aren't going anywhere till at least january (heard that from the horses mouth himself), captains spots that go unfilled.... we dont care about any of that.. we wont care till we get a fair contract.

They must be getting pretty desperate, as I received an interview call from them today based on a generic resume that I have on climb to 350. I didn't even apply there and I got called! Of course I had to inform them that I was not close to interested in cutting my pay by more than half, not to mention no longer logging turbine PIC.
