ASA to open LAX base (old)
#11
Slap....you are the most optomistic person I have ever seen. I hope youre right about half your predictions. Perhaps you havent been here long enough to get kicked in the nuts enough. Massive growth after a contract, which may or may not get solved in this century, is quite optomistic. Who knows if LA will remain a base, let alone grow to a DFW!?!?!? And I've never heard of replacements for the ATR or keeping the 700's or getting 705/900's. Boy, I need a pair of your rose colored glasses. Heres to hoping.

The LA list is out, it went fairly senior, the junior captain was in the mid 700 seniority range. I predict that our little optimist was a little correct and that within the next few days they will announce a very, very small amount of 700 flying at LAX.

I have to be optimistic, because its the only thing that keep me going. I don't even want to think how bad it could get here. Plus its been so bad here the past 2 year with badnews after badnews, there has got to be something marginally good on the horizon.

slap, I'm just jealous.... after 10 years my optimist gene has died a slow death. I keep looking in Pandora's box for hope, but I think she was gang raped by Delta Management!

Nope.....never happens here. If you want good news, go work at Skywest.

Comair is hiring. They have 5 bases, and will probably grow again before ASA. If we at ASA have to compare ourselves to the plight of the pilots at TSA and Mesaba, we are a hurting group. My, how the mighty fall.
