Hence is why Hubby went to Express, right

 

Do you like trolling this thread, what did Eagle turn you down or something? I do not get why you come and doom gloom here??

You guys enjoy coming here and claiming how we will shrink to death, but this is real peoples jobs man, you should want the best for everyone.

Eagle doing well, would be this industry doing well. Eagle has a great flow up to mainline jobs, we pay pretty well for entry level regional flying, and the AA guys have done a great job keep our scope limited, so we dont fly a bunch of 90 seat jets for $30/hr. You should in some regards hope more regional's move to be like eagle, not hope we go out of business. We also have great travel benefits, that more regionals should want.

I bet you post on here all this crap, then when you need to jumpseat on us, you put on your other face and stop in the cockpit and say how you hope we do well, and say how much worst things are at your regional and how you think we will keep all our flying and be gone to AA in no time.

 

Hubs went to Express because it was a better decision location wise for us. Eagle will survive the divestiture and even if AMR files bankruptcy, Eagle won't suffer. They'll get a ton more business from other airlines by underbidding other regionals.

 

Well thats a stretch too, there is not much feed out there anymore, but we will see. I do not think AMR will go BK unless they keep bleeding for 2 more years, which I think once they start parking they Dino80s the losses will stop fast.

But I like the support, I think the attrition to AA, will out weigh shrinking. We are really inter tied to AA, it is going to take them awhile to untie us, if it even truly happens and gets approved.

 

NAH, in all honesty. I'm bored and its fun to ruffle some feathers and listen to people cry about how great their airline is. Especially newbies to 121. Also, I don't Jumpseat on AE. the 145 cockpit sux and way to cramped. Besides, you guys don't go anywhere I can't get to on our company equipment and our JS capabilities are just as good as yours my young friend.

 

Have they improved the training department at Colgan?

 

I was talking NON REV not JS, and AE has by far the best non rev in the industry, at least for 5 more years.

AND no one wants to loose their job, its not even funny to ruffle about. I feel terrible for the COMAIR guys, and trying to wish us the same fate is just sick, but maybe Karma will work it all out. Maybe you need to go watch some 'hey my name is earl'

 

Ooooooo good one!

 

But you just said oil was going down. So trading a free and clear asset for a payment puts them in a better position? Or is it the obsolete 35 seat jets that turns you on? You can bet those will all head to the sands in a BK filing.Wait how do they finance new jets in BK.
