I was told they are starting up a E-145 training program so they can merge the SKYW and XJT lists.

You were told wrong. There won't be a merger of the list that is 100% certain. This is probably a backup incase your union doesn't want to negoiate.

how much fight did your union have when expressjet was loosing all of those props to non union carriers? (or how about those first 69 jets) the answer is non...Thanks to your company (CAL) yes XJT has been getting the screwjob. Whats CAL doing to fix this? Allowing 70 seat turboprops to fly in place of the 50 seat jets isnt a good start. sad isn't it.

the first contract that was figured up during the merger talks put a limit on the number of regional jets. That number was less than the number currently flying. now we just have to get the joint contract together and get the details.

Hey!?.... you can't talk to my newly minted Delta double-breasted brother that way! He's one of the good guys now.

SuperPilot will be off probation soon enough. Until then, as far as I'm concerned, his years spent in the regionals are leverage enough to have a very valid opinion on scope.

I wasnt trying to tell you "how it is". What did i say thats not true? Does my probationary status at NWA make my opinion any less valid then it was as a CA at XJT or yours as an FO at Skywest? Nice attempt at a flame though
