I wish ASA nothing but the best and can't wait for the day that DCI is Comair, ASA, and skywest again.

I boil this one down to a pipedream on someone's wish list at best.

This does not need to become a SKW vs. ASA thread! If ASA gets CR9's then those in more important positions made the decision, not us peons. ASA deserves them just as much as anyone else and a MEM base would do their pilot moral wonders. But, I do think DAL's 76 seat/85K MTW scope clause is almost spent. That is unless DAL gets additional airframes for mainline pilots (I think it's a 4:1 ratio).
Don't believe rumors until the a/c are on property.

I could be wrong, though. I have been known to make a mistake every now and then.

truman sparks, no one is buying into your sad and pathetic attempt to take a stab at the pinnacle pilots. so you heard this during the week huh?? well you just posted this 2 hours ago in the pinnacle thread
your sad attempt to stir the pot is just that. an attempt. there was no meeting. you chose memphis because you are mad at the pinnacle pilots. sorry about that. the pilots have nothing to do with management decisions. move on, or get out.

Over at ASA, we are not hiring or growing, are downgrading Captains and possibly furloughing in the fall. Please keep informing us of your good fortunes as you grow in our only base for our only partner.
Ps. It's funny how we lost so much flying and couldn't get any growth while we were negotiating a new contract but Pinnacle seems to have no problem.

I my mind there is only two good things about MEM……………….BBQ and Cost Of Living.

that is the truth man. i live just outside collierville and would never even think of being in the mem city limits. you guys used to stay at the holiday in downtown huh. that is a good spot. you got beale street around the corner, rendevouz downstairs, and a nice movie theatre and shopping mall close by. downtown memphis is pretty nice. just dont venture out to far.
