Reading the title of this thread and they way every forum member is talking regarding how 9E is facing difficulty scheduling, reserves flying so much, people timing out.. I can only hope they start new hire classes back up soon.
Compass has already started hiring (according to one of the other threads) and has a NH class in jan. So hoping the new year 2009 brings about the same for 9E. Also wish the company and its employees the best of luck for the upcoming year along with making good progress and a setting/maintaining a great record. Not to forget.. lets hope they get the contract.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!!

Ah ha! Now this I can agree with. Good points there, everybase has its issues.

Ok so I just saw this on the airline pilot central website for 9E under quicktake:
- Receiving the remainder of CRJ900s in January
(http://www.airlinepilotcentral.com/a.../pinnacle.html)
Anyone know anything about this? As in which remainder of the 900's, the 5 expected from the manufacturer between Jan and May? or is this regarding those freedom airplanes?
I'm not sure if this is even true but this was posted on the website on 23rd December (just yesterday). And it just says January, maybe it implies "starting" in January.
Anyone want to shed some light on this? comments.
