Which is the majority of the reason it seems why most CP pilots are there, something bad happened at the last job. They may have had SFS ( shiny flow syndrome) but def. not SJS from the people I have spoke with. Anyways when's hiring going to start again? :)
We laugh when someone calls us a 'transitional jet' or 'real airplane' on the radio...because we think it's silly. We are just underpaid pilots like everyone else. |

That thing is amazing tho. VNAV and all the glass a girl could want. Wow, I wish this AC was more effective in the room. I bet the 170 has really good AC. If Eagle had a bridge program that allowed me to fly it for -12,000 a year do you think they would go for that? Did I mention how big it is? It's like up into the 80's...

1. To buy for the long term contract eagle may have.
2. Buy it for the pilot supply. But eagle does have an 18 year lease deal now 16 left on all facilities and equipment. |
Bedford said eagle and pinnacle would be bought by either tsa, Skywest, or rah. That kind of talk typically starts with CEOs once something is in the works. It looks Parker will right size the ae fleet as well as the contract before a sale takes place. It's coming IMO.

Where did he say that?

in a company wide e-mail. right after he said we get paid too much and thats the reason skywest got the united deal

Worth noting that SKW pay rates are higher than yours. Poor arguement from someone who should know better.

It's not all about the payrates, there is much more than influences your W2. Work rules are as important as pay rates.
Why doesn't a whole company of pilots draw a line at some point and just strike. Don't show up at work, nationwide, until they raise your F/O salary to at least $40k/year. It's sad to read nothing but complaints about working at regionals from so many people that work at regionals. It's as if you all spent 5-10 years working your asses off everyday to get a right seat and then the whole notion of being a pilot became less desirable than working as a cashier's at McDonalds. With this new 1500-hour rule and the fact that less people are becoming pilots, or are willing to go the full stretch, it'll just be a matter of time before supply/demand of pilots dictate a salary increase. I know there's always gonna be that kid wanting to fly the bird for free, but as a bigger picture, less and less people will want to work at the regionals and maybe at the point.....someone in management will realize that $20 million bonus might be better off being paid off to the workforce. Ugh. |
