United is buying Republic/Chautauqua/Shuttle...30 E175's AMR is buying Republic/Chautauqua/Shuttle 47 E175's so....Republic/Chautauqua/Shuttle are getting 77 new airplanes from two major legacy carriers and expected to find roughly 740 NEW pilots at 9.6 pilots per aircraft....aaaand keep and retain these additional pilots to add to their seniority list in addition to the guys/gals they already have even though they haven't had a contract since 2007? Keeping in mind of course AA has offered recall to all furloughed pilots Airways, United/Continental are hiring, 1500 hour rule hits in August and Jan 4th, 2014 new Flight Time, Duty time rules take effect...ABSOLUTELYOUTF!@KINGSTANDING! This next year is gonna be fun to watch.

Wish I could say the same. Seems like every time I share a van with a SkyWest crew, some doofus asks "Have you considered coming to mainline". I say, well I have apps in like everyone else". And they say 'No, I mean SkyWest". #facepalm
