So we've gained 90 pilots and although we turned down that crappy TA, in the short term we're staying tremendously cheaper that Eagle. This sets us up perfectly to get more American flying IMO. Don't think for a second this company won't aggressively pursue new flying, not to improve upgrade times, but to increase revenue and of course profits, the bread and butter of a higher stock price.

The "we're going to furlough rumor!" doesn't help it hurts, because it fosters and spreads fear amongst our pilot group. The type of fear that allows management to bust unions, manipulate feelings and push through crappy TA's that accelerate the race to the bottom.

Please stay at the regional level of the industry.

Also wouldn't surprise me if we park the Q's at some point. BB has made his bed, he will lie in it. He will do this until 170s start to get parked. Then he might consider coming back to the table. Stop encouraging people to come here when it is the worst regional airline period.

Yes, four.

For those who are wondering, there is not a single FO posting for Republic ORD, 4 openings for Shuttle, but those will likely go to recent CHQ displacements who ended up at an outstation and are waiting for ORD.
