Depends. Get ERJ's then no. No ERJ's and fly Dash 8's until they time out then yes. Probably the best part of our contract was job protection.

Which part did i misread? You said without ERJs american would just hire all PDT guys at once for no reason. I said that was absurd. You said they are required to take 3 a month. So I feel like I'm not the one misreading posts

Our 100 series of planes are slowly timing out. 2 maybe one year, 5-6 another year, slowly they will all be timed out by 2018 with just a hand full of 300's left.

What I'm saying is they will increase the flow to meet demands at the airline. Over at ENVOY they are seeing there flow increased because they don't need as many pilots. So entire classes are envoy pilots.

That's why I was saying I hope we don't even see the ERJ's. But with how the contract went with AWAC I'm sure they are full steam ahead on coming.

Just saw that AWAC is now listed on the FAA's list of approved course providers. One less reason for anybody to pay for it!

Question for you AWAC guys/gals. Is it correct that your JS priority is your pilots then ANY pilot in check in order?
So a UAL/DL/SWA pilot would be in front of a mainline Airways/AA pilot on a airways/AA express flight?

Air Wisconsin pilots first and then it should be first come first serve.

I know the Wholly Owns it goes company pilots first, then mainline AA/Airways (pretty sure) then first come first serve.
