Believe me, I want you to have your dream airline job. As long as you don't degrade yourself by stopping at B6, VX or Skybus along the way.

Who would want to fly around Colorado in a B1900 for $15/hour without an autopilot?
i dont mean to be rude, but isnt this the kettle calling the pot black? im not skw or brasilia bashing. i might upgrade in the brasilia who knows. but anyhoo when you go to one of these places to fly commuters you dont hold a crystal ball in your hand. people went there because a) it was the only place they could go based on their circumstances or b)it was the first company to call them for an interview

anyway back to the subject. yes mainline guys have all the say in this one, so it will be interesting to see what happens. its interesting though that AA has done away with their F100's and have no plans whatsoever to replace them. I wonder what theyre going to replace the 80's with. umm i mean "super" 80's

Step away from the pipe....We couldn't even demand that 50 seaters, 69 seaters, 72 seaters, 76 seaters, 86 seaters be flown by mainline...this will be no different. Relax, it only makes it hurt that much more

Republic and Shuttle America pilots top out higher in the 190 than a "mainline" pilot would with USair.

Mesa's current contract doesnt allow for anything that weighs this much. I encourage Mesa ALPA and all other airline pilots to ASSURE that this goes mainline. Mesa pilots also need to resist the urge to allow this to be operated under GO in Hawaii. JO is just slobbering all over this thing... don't let him have it.

Although I find a lot of their FA's attractive, no Jet Blue for me

Enough of the grandstanding.

I asked you what your ideas were regarding 'legacy' pilots and what they were supposed to do.

Why don't you spell it out?
