DCI Rumor
#31
hahahaha right! hmmm ASAs contract is to have 80% of all DCI traffic out of atlanta. Dream on man. I work for ASA and I have a few friends at 9E, I am glad to see you all not lose the contract out of ATL but don't start talking like that just because of one pilot talking trash.

I'm willing to bet he was being sarcasic and just wanted to p*ss off a certain crybaby at your company, not that 9e's really gonna "take flying" from you guys That is one problem on here that guys don't understand tho, 1 bad asa apple giving all the guys a bad rap.

Yea you are right, it makes about as much sense as the origional post doesn't it BTW, I hope ASA does well, maybe I'll be seeing you guys up in MSP pretty soon. I just think its funny that he chose the NWA base that most people think has the best chance of going away to use for his pathetic rumor.
You are probubly right Mooney but I just wanted to make sure. Don't need us hating on each other in ATL. I don't wanna see a 9E pilot and have tention.

I'm sorry to hear you say something like this RJtrash. You usually have great points of view and insight. I'm sure here soon when we're wearing the same uniform there'll be alot of mixup of "tradition routes." If we all still have jobs post merger, the ultimately who cares. The routes belong to NW and Delta, and besides, Detroit sucks. Come on up if you want to!

Hey, since we're talking rumors, I heard from "someone" that post-merger, the new mainline scope has all 70 seat and above jets being flown at the mainline, and all regional pilots flying them merged DOH and then stapled to the bottom of the DAL/NWA list. Those flying anything less and TPs will be merged DOH into one huge DCI carrier.
Is it April yet?

In my mind, I knew the context of my post, but it's quite difficult to convey what is actually meant often on these boards. A single comment can be taken several different ways and sometimes gets misinterpreted and taken out of context.
I am the last person that wants to see pilot groups up against each other. I have seen it constantly here in CVG with bad attitudes towards CHQ and Freedom pilots. They came in to CVG and MCO and were flying traditional Comair flying, of course on the decisions made by DL management, not the individual pilot groups and using their own metal. Now Pinnacle is in ATL, again because of DL management decisions and it is upsetting ASA guys. I was merely saying that if and when Comar and ASA metal shows up in DTW and MSP, to remember it's management and not the pilots.

Whenever you hear about more large regional jets be very suspicious. The new scope language limits the amount of LRJ's to 120. There are already more than 120 in the combined systems. As Delta puts on more aircraft above the to be established base number then 3 LRJ's for every mainline jet can appear. I just don't see those numbers of mainline jets increasing with the planned parking of some and delivery of others in the near future. The only other way is if someone who is now operating LRJ's is pushed out. Lets hope that that doesn't happen either as it could be your airline.

I think my post may have been misinterpreted by Pinnacle drivers. If so, I apologize. What I was trying to convey (and obviously unsuccessfully, I might add) is that we will see if Pinnacle guys and gals will be saying the same things like blame management, not the pilots etc... if and when Comair and ASA metal shows up in MSP and DTW. I was not trying to flame anyone person or pilot group.
