We have good pilots and people where I work. It's just sometimes i feel like I pulled up to the country club party in a green Pinto.

Anyway back to the subject. There was a news article on google several months ago about Republic and AA ordering 100 RJ's from Embraer. Did no one see this? Just from what I'm seeing now, I know there are quiet a few pilots on the streets, but most of these guys aren't showing up to these regional interviews. If regionals are having a hard time filling classes now, wait 3 years. Mainline will eventually get this flying back.

Where is that article? I remember seeing one that said they expressed interest in doing so. But, I don't recall seeing a firm order. Plus if they did, why are they talking COLAs in the E jet?

I can't even begin to count the amount of people I hear or see do it on Facebook.

It does make one laugh just a bit though
That's strange... my check says "American Airlines" on it...

What does it say on their deposit the bank gets? That's who they work for.

You're a mainline guy! Congratulations! All this time you had us fooled- thinking you were a regional pilot.
