USAir can do that but for me and the other new hires who didn't have to go through J4J's and CDL its all good for us. Good upgrade time and a chance for growth on the horizon. The smile is still for me. It is the reagional that fits me best. Some others my not say so but you will have that anywhere you go.

With your 14 -700's? LOL.

Don't forget about the 35 -200's, of which several are parked because there aren't enough pilots. That's expensive.

I would check my info before I come on here. The only 200's we have parked is the spares which is only about two or three but they get used every day. So I would go back and check my info. And the only pilot shortage we have is a capt shortage and that is only because we can't find sim time to. That only means alot of upgrades to come. And as far as 14 700's goes that is fine we are not a large company. And there are bigger things on the horizon. With the general lack of knowledge you sound like you are a Mesa guy.

Is it really that hard to see coming...?

Quite simply, management will come to you telling you that the 50 seaters have to be parked... Unless you are willing to take a pay cut, changes to work rules, or both.

Bet me.
