I think Republic said they are going to focus on bigger airplanes more than anything, but I suppose that's all in how you read an article, and believe what you want.

I don't know what is going on over at ExpressJet/ASA other than a bunch of you though a pay raise for Brasilia pilot's was a great deal. Why would Skywest INC offer it to you if it was sooo great? I mean yeah your JCBA wasn't stellar, and would have put you behind Mesa, Piedmont, and PSA.

Does your captain know how you feel, Skippy? How long is that upgrade, tough guy? My regional is better than YOUR regional.

Expressjet is already flying CRJ, and they can pickup some E145s I am sure. Skywest INC.

Basically do what Republic is doing. Drop the small jet flying for more lucrative larger regional jet flying.
Ummm....I think it's time to take a step back from the keyboard and read some facts before aimlessly typing away misinformation. Republic is about to DROP that "lucrative" large rj flying because of inability to staff.

Are you sure. I thought they were dropping the less than "lucrative" small rj flying because of the inability to staff. Either way I think it's neat when I see an AWAC CRJ taxi past a Republic E-190 knowing the AWAC FO is paid a whole brand new Ford F-150 more than the E-190 FO.

Well there junior. I am the captain. Our upgrade will likely drop to 3 to 4 years as soon as we finish upgrading the rest of the 2007 hires. We are upgrading pretty much every month.
My regional is better than yours... of course so is pretty much every other regional. You would have to be an idiot to go to PSA, which makes you a perfect fit I guess. I am guessing you are fresh out of Riddle and living with your roomates/parents still. I really enjoyed the picture of you and your boyfriend.

Then why are you at a regional when United is hiring 100 a month. What is your defect?

Oh man. Playing for keeps I see? I bet you guys have dual FMS installations too?

Have you ever been in SJU??? Those are just two small counters in a more than 400 feet line of counters.

I know because I'm from down there...
