Sonora just trying to bring some levity to the conversation before it spirals into something else. Plus i couldn't help myself with the good set up you gave.
I fly the RJ and am proud to fly it, no little jet syndrome here. Getting better pay on it is preeching to the choir here, that's why I voted our pay package down and I will do it until we actually get something fair.
Are you a UAL furloughee coming to skywest? if so welcome aboard. if not, you're always welcome.

My mistake. You very cleverly disguised that remark, and I missed the fact that you were actually just adding some "levity".
Next time I see something that seems so completely shallow and childish on the surface, I will look twice for the hidden deeper meaning.
If it is all the same, I hope to see both of us at UAL mainline.

Rickair,
You might be right...

I guess you have a point in your question. It is only rumor and expectation until it happens, as things can and do change frequently. It is currently planned for the CRJ, and I guess we will all find out soon if it will be official.

So if the EMB guys are going to start a riot over the notion a furloughed United guy may take an RJ seat, I can only imagine the attitude around SKW when by gods good grace UAL/CAL shut down the outsourced flying gig. So perhaps instead of throwing a hissy fit if a UA guy does in fact get a RJ seat, they may want to focus more on the bigger picture looming on the horizon. Sometimes the sense of entitlement is a dangerous thing.

So what happens when all the "RJ flying" comes in house and all domestic flying is done by "RJs" under "RJ" pay and workrules.....and the only mainline flying is trans-cons and international? Be careful what you wish for.....Once you "buy" it and bring it in house, there is nothing stoping management from moving most domestic flying to "RJs" with the accompanying pay and workrules....

At least in-house you can control it better. Living wage for FO's, six-figures for CA's and reasonable work rules. If that means that it's no longer economical to provide service to podunk falls, then the podunkians can either pay what the service is worth or take the bus. Greyhound can hire the regional pilots who don't make the cut...same job but no leadership or interpersonal skills required.
As far as "six-figures for CA's", many already have that under the current system...
