There is also the total limit on 70 and 76 seat airframes of 255 which includes all DCI and x-airlink carriers, including Compass. That number can flex up, contingent on mainline growth.

British Airways, Lufthansa and Korean Airlines all have ab initio programs where a student interested in becoming an airline pilot can go through their program from zero experience to a full fledged FO upon completion of their training. We've never had anything close to it in this country.

Maybe you could heed your own advice. As of January 2009, when the next round of furloughs takes place, the most junior FO at Comair will be a 3 year FO.

I truly am glad that Mesaba is experiencing some positive news and wish no ill will towards any of their pilot group. There just seems to be a few that don't understand how to conduct themselves graciously.
"There but for the grace of God, go I" - something all pilots should consider.

There is always that few that make the rest of us look bad. He by no means represents the common attitude of our pilot group. We are happy to receive more aircraft but do understand what that means for the other regionals because we were there at one point as well.

Not too sure about any futures at this point and I really don't feel like thinking about it because I have no control over it. I'll just sit back, take the upgrade and do what I can to get out of a regional (which is little at this point)
