We’re staffed to take all 25 at the current. Hate to see a carrot being taken away, pretty shady.

If it is true, and we are getting at least 10, this would fit in very nicely with where our staffing level is today.

Prior to the 2015 contract we had 2300-2400 pilots and about 240 aircraft. We currently have that many pilots, including those in training, and only about 190 aircraft.

I believe that contract was contingent upon them actually receiving those airframes. If they don’t, they go back into negotiations.
Could be wrong though.

XJet pilot here. Yes, that’s how it works. Our new contract says if 20 or more E175SCs don’t get formally announced by the end of this January, we return to section 6. I’m becoming more and more skeptical by the day. I basically am working with a one foot out the door mentality but want to exhaust my options with majors before lateraling.

Wasn’t there also something in there about a change of ownership or if Skywest is still the owner you guys go back to Section 6?
