To the moderators:

MANAGEMENT has made a decision. It wasn't the decision of the pilots - it was MANAGEMENT.

I have been very reluctant to post on here, but I respectfully request that this thread be locked. I can see this being an Eagle vs. Republic vs. TSA bashing thread.

Lets stop it before it really gets out of hand.

AA is in violation of the APA's scope provisions since the number of AA pilots has fallen below 7300 and the grace period for remedying the violation is nearly over. As such, the APA can demand back all regional flying or demand AE and it's outsourcing contracts be shut down.

Some interesting times ahead.

C'mon EEmbraer, have a little faith, we're all professionals here.

With that being said... If this thing gets ugly, then the moderators can shut it down. But until then, someone might have something interesting to add. So just wait and see... Mmm-kay?

Kind of a bummer that the majors are going after the regionals again to reduce costs (hopefully the regionals don't try to convince their employees that they need to work for free to keep their contracts). At least Chautauqua is getting a longer contract term out of the deal.
Correct me if I'm wrong but the deal was always through 2012 but was amendable in 09, or now if CHQ wanted. AMR has to honor the contracts they inherited when they purchased TWA.

Did this actually extend the AA contract, or simply extend AA's ability to terminate it early by three additional years to 2012? I may have read it wrong, but I don't read anything that states there has been a contract extension.

It was no contract extension. The TWA contract was through 2012. It was amendable in 2009, or so I've been told.

"It should be Eagle's flying" is crazy talk. CHQ's contract was not with AA. It was with TWA. When AA bought TWA they bought our contracts. That's it. CHQ didn't take any of Eagle's flying as they never flew the routes to start with. It's like two parents getting married and one kid says all the other kids things belong to him because his mom took their last name.
