Are you referring to that silly little scope clause that the IBT lap dogs said doesn't matter? If BB wants to lease out the planes he can't staff, he's gonna do it. The whiny little trucker *****es are impotent to do anything about it.

NC update says "This week your Negotiating Committee (NC) discussed, with the Company, Article 1 (Scope), Article 6 (Scheduling), Article 7 (Reserve Duty), Article 8 (Paid Days Off), Article 25 (Duration), and Article 31 (Flying the Line). No Articles have been TA’d since April 23rd".

This is as expected from RAH. Sounds like the company is shifting to plan B, so don't come here.

There is no plan B, that's why its so easy to shift to it.

Even pilots know that will never be enforced. Just pretend it was never written because nobody will be taking that seriously. The company will do what it wants to survive.

Simple he leases the planes to another company and they staff them. Good news for another company, but not for anyone hired after 2008 at RAH. Yea I Scope Scope Scope!!! BB is not concerned about violating our current CBA. He has to fly the airplanes, they don't make money parked on the ramp.

At least RAH made money. Always on the bright side.

Republic Airways Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ/NM: RJET) reported financial results for the first quarter of 2015.

Republic’s pre-tax income for the first quarter of 2015 was $11.2 million, compared to $22.8 million for the prior year’s first quarter. Republic’s net income for the first quarter of 2015 was $6.4 million, or $0.13 per diluted share. The Company incurred approximately $8.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for charges related to fleet transition expenses and employee severance costs, which are included in other operating expense.

The first quarter of 2015 results also were negatively affected by a reduction in operational reliability. Republic’s operating performance, as measured in block hours, departures and available seat miles was approximately 4 percent lower than planned.

It's prob because Compass raked AA over the coals. Right is not an ideal time to put a bid out for rj flying. It must be way cheaper to extend at a previously agreed contract with pricing. Also I am sure its a super cheap deal for Delta to turn up the pressure on a contractor that runs feed for its two largest competitors in there brand new flagship rjs.

But that is meant to protect against leasing to foreign carriers (which we have/are doing. I believe they could get away with leasing the aircraft to foreign carriers under this clause. However, for the domestic market (the situations discussed earlier in the thread) it would not be possible under the current contract.

Delta extended the 145 contract due to the failure of signing a 50 seat contract with air whiskey. Very simple...

All very good points.
