Yes, training is going on..2 planes starting in August. It's only differences training if you're on the Republic cert - 170/175 and typed (SIC or PIC).

I remember back in the day, majors got upset when regionals first flew pressurized cabins. Then it was turboprops that upset everybody. The advent of the CRJ outraged many. The 70 seat RJ did the same. The CRJ900 sparked some outrage over changes in scope limitations. Now the 100 seater EMB190 is causing a stir. To those who choose to throw stones towards RAH, take a look in the mirror. If you're flying anything that I mentioned above, you're also a part of the problem. Tough to admit, but you must. If you are at mainline as long as you say you have been, then you are the one who is really to blame every time you voted to get more at mainline by giving management more relief on the scope clause by allow the regionals to do more and more... Think about it, you have the ability to stop this more than anyone who is at the regionals....give the mainline guys a bone and they will give up anything just as long as they keep their jobs and make more. I am all for striking... unfortunately for you, seem you were all about I, me, my... |

I talked to a rah driver the other day and he said people actually voluntered to fly the 190... how sad if this is true?? Saw an erj painted in midwest colors and laughed then almost threw up a little. its sad to see the death of a good product.

Thanks for being the beacon shining in the dark. Again, you work for a regional. That's like saying your hooking up with the hot fat chick. It's still a fat chick. |
You you're right, It's just $2 dollars, It's just no cancellation pay, It's just 75% deadhead pay, It's just no duty n trip rigs, It's just no trip touching, It's just...
Anything else you want to add to that, go right ahead. Oh and you know, fat chicks need lovin' too. ;) |
I'm still waiting for the Republic guys to voice their support for the Midex pilots. I bet you Republic pilots have no desire to fly on Midwest routes in airplanes that you know Midwest pilots should be flying.

What regional out there is not flying current mainline routes or routes that were once mainline routes? Please answer. With whom do you work for Edwin? And what routes "should Midwest pilots be flying"? Midwest pilots will become Republic pilots and until we get our contract fixed to where it should be, they'll be flying the 190 for subpar pay. Bad now? You betcha. Will we fix it? Sure will. We won't screw up like Mesa just did by signing in their horrible new TA. I wonder if any of you Internet wonders know the reason why we "gave in" and have the contract we have today. The all FO payscale (regardless of airframe) was signed and agreed upon to avoid managements goal of 2 (or 3) seniority lists and using us against each other like eGOJET did. We will fix this. |

PS: it's an ugly color on any airplane. Worst pain scheme in aviation, just an opinion. |

Amazing
One of the most amazing thing I have noticed while participating in these forums is that the same complaining occurs consistently, and it is always managements fault. I don't remember hearing, not that it hasn't occurred, anyone with an idea of how to increase ridership on our airlines, make our product distinguishable so that people would be willing to pay more for it, or reduce the costs associated with the operations so that there will be additional money to spread around for crew compensation. In other industries, the people that are most highly compensated bring value to the company, product or service. What are we doing in that capacity?

i agree but airline pilots don't paid anymore whether they do more or not. also, its hard to do more and then have pilots under cut what you did. |

I believe that the "job responsibilities" you listed would probably be found in a CEO job posting. |
Just so everyone on here knows what the real mentality of Republic employees are:
There was a Republic employee on my commute yesterday. I overheard the conversation between this individual and the flight attendant, and this individual couldn't help exclaiming "I can't wait till the 190's get here! They will be so nice! We are really moving up!" No joke, this is how these people think. I would love to be there when the same bragging occurs in front of a furloughed Midwest employee. |

This is how Republic will be its own airline one day. Bigger planes that we fly under our own brand. Hell, I never need to apply for another job, just stay here. Great!

I am sure a lot of Midwest pilots can't wait to meet some to these republic guys. So Toilet Duck, please tell us what you are going to say on your first flight with a Midwest 20 plus year captain.

Who cares? He will probably say "hello, my name is ......, pleased to meet you." Why is everyone so crazy over Republic 190s? How old are you really?

For those who bid it, they along with everyone else knew what the pay rate on the 190 is when they took the job. Did anyone see us flying it branded, nope. Here's the deal, at least for Captains. It is still the highest paying among the fleet and no doubt will continue to be under the new contract. There is not a distinction 170/175's in regards to bases. So if you are at a 190 base you will always be paid at 175/190 or per our contract 79 seats plus. This equates to $7-10k per year under the current contract and may equal an even bigger difference under the new one. For the FO's they know there are better things in store for it so you fools that think you are going to berate someone into doing something the way you think it should be done are wasting your time and APC's server space.

And what do you mean "these people"? :rolleyes: Do we need to call the ACLU? Chances are the Midwest employee would be more responsible and mature then you and simply remind this young man of the unfortunate few that have lost their jobs in this transaction. |

They lost their jobs to you. You are more than willing to come in and do their flying for less than half of what they were making. I would be irresponsible myself if I did not remind you of that fact. |
