Yeah, I'm sure the Midwest pilots will be thrilled and proud to fly with you guys. Give me a break.
Yeah you used to work for CHQ, didn't you?

It it ok to trash us now that you've moved on?

It's all the same where ever you go. Some of the biggest Comair haters at the mainline level are former Comair pilots (and perhaps rightfully so) that have moved on to bigger and better. I would imagine that harsh feelings abound amongst pilots at every regional in the US right now.

Of course the Republic furloughs are more important. Some of them flew the line for an entire month. Others have 600 hours. How can you reason with that? For you Republic pilots that think this is false....it's not. You have furloughed pilots with 600 hours total time right now.

nope that is just wrong info., 1200tt is the lowest I have seen in 3 out of 5ish classes that are furloughed, also most were on the line for 3.5 months or more.

I know personally at least two pilots that were hired at Skyways with 300 total time. These two pilots flew the line at Skyways for a month and a half before the company went under. One was hired into the Shuttle America 170 with about 450 total hours and now currently has just over 600 hours. The other pilot has very similar numbers. These pilots are on the seniority list. I am sure there are pilots with 1200 hours or more furloughed, but there are also a few 600 hour pilots. These pilots may have been given a break due to previous 121 experience, but they are 600-hour pilots none the less. Why don't you research next time before trying to discredit someone?

Alright so you might be right about the two guys from skyway. I only said I knew about 3 of the 5ish classes of furloughed. 1200 was on the lowest of time in my class. Your original tone was trying to say that all the furloughs have 600 hours and a month of OE, which is the exception not the case. So I'm going to set it straight, thats it. Frankly I'm not too concerned how all 3 pilot groups furloughs are integrated because it won't be pretty for anyone.

I saw my first RAH E190 in LAX today…………..very good looking airplane but it truly made me sick……...sick to my core. Those jets should be operated by Midwest pilots, not RAH pilots, but my comment isn’t directed toward RAH pilots. I’m talking about the overall situation and what MEH has become.

got scope? Sticker (Oval) > got scope? : got scope?

Good day.........
