very insightful, fellow atr driver. care to share any more fear mongering?
sigh, just got word that the dimmest light bulb ever to grace the cfi cadre at my previous employer was just hired by us. all i will say is that this individual required multiple 141 standardization flights in each of our aircraft, and one of our check instructors flat out refused to continue flying with this individual during the standardization process. if you can't fly rectangular course, eights on, steep spirals, stalls, etc by the time you're a cfi.....

What will happen to Eagle?
I don’t think anything until AA employees are done with all the contracts. I think all 3 are up APA, Flight Attendants, and the TWU. Not to mention the board of directors have much bigger fish to fry. Eagle is not on the radar yet…
Ok, now my prediction. Once ALL contracts are ratified, the Orbits, British Airways, Iberia, JAL deals are all worked out we will see what happens to Eagle. I suspect we won’t see much until the 4 quarter of the 2011 year. Eagle will get threatened and teased with new airplanes. In the end Eagle will get a face lift and a new contract.
I have been an FO for 5 years at Eagle. My opinion is “it’s never as good as your think or as bad as you think.” Not to mention it all happens slowly.
Best of luck and welcome new hires!

The guy that does the seniority list is clearly having fun with all of us. Remember how last month it said Airbus in the training schedule?
Now the new Jan senoirity list says Sukhoi Superjet hahaha
