:( I have over 500 people below me at RAH and I'm concerned about the coming 12 months....

Almost certainly losing all 35ish planes for CAL
+ 50 crews displaced out of DEN
+ Any little hiccup, like a reduction or elimination of DAL or UAL flying
= me digging ditches

I think you'll be alright. I was out there for an interview a month ago (didn't get it :() and they were talking about getting more 175s this year. They will hit bumps in the road here and there, but they have so many contracts I wouldn't be too concerned. The only way to be concerned is I'm guessing CAL will not renew the CRJ-200 contract.

They will be replacing <50 seat aircraft with no net increase in total airframes.

This is news to me about the CAL flying? Why?

CAL has already told us that they have no plan of renewing the CRJ contract and our CEO has talked several times about the timeline for the withdrawal of those aircraft.

However, there is no place I would rather be in terms of job security. Certainly not TSA, Mesa, AWAC, XJT, AE, or Skywest.. Colgan is probably gonna do well with their Q400's. I know all the SKY cronies are going to jump all over me, but you have ALL your eggs in 2 baskets and a ton of 50 seaters

This is probably a contributing factor for the SKW deal with CAL.

Who is more likely to lose the American Connection flying... CHQ, TSA, or both? Just curious because American Connection is often my ride to work (STL-ORF).


Both will loose flying in addition to Eagle. It has yet to be determined how many from each but AMR says they are evaluating every route on an individual bases.

Pinnacle still cannot fill their new hire or upgrade class. 1000TT and 200 multi unless you took a bridge program. ATP, Jet U etc.

For anyone that thinks that it's any better down at the instructing level, I can say that it is drying up. The only training really going on right now is foreign students and business men. Oh, and the universities...
