akpilot, what do you know about Kodiak. I sure would like to hav a reason to take my fishing pokle with me!! You seem to be up on the off shore drilling too. Whats that all about?? You think think they will ever build that gravel road on the pennesula??

185, you sounded like you were upgradeable? Sounds like #'s in the 50-60's could see upgrades. wondering if you were close

i am not close yet
was in traffic the other evening and danny says that if ERA goes away we will file on thier routes
it should be interesting
any ERA guys out there with a comment?

Three more SAABs, would that be nine more captians?? Could be some A-modles in the future.

SAAB coming in march is an A-Model
6 more captains
i hear the 10th SAAB is a spare
also another metro, 640, coming on line for additional lift
so that means more metro crews also
new hire class in mid feb for up to 18 positions

Is this just rumor? What floor did it come from?? Did you hear it from pilot records??? I heard that there is a plan incase of the 27th. Is this part of it????
We alerady have 640 dont we?

SAAB A-Model in march is a fact its at nashville now going through a heavy check
rumors are everywhere but i did hear we have a contingency plan all worked up and redy to go
don't you have a buddy at ERA?? whats he say about this??

Yea, but he is out doing the Bethel gig. Pluse he is a little pised. I tried to get him over to PenAir back at the last hireing. I brought his resume in and he was gung ho untill they told him he would have to do the van first. Hum, twin turbin or single?? Can't hold it against him cuz he might be out of a job now if he was in AKN... or if he had done realy good in groundschool, he would already be in the saab or metro with us. Luck of the draw.

What about your connections over at ERA. You bring in your partners resume yet?? What is the scoop? Heard Landis has set them up for failure.

Man has BBKing been packed these last couple of weeks. Most business they have seen all year. You get any pics of Augustine?? Alaska cx their flights last night.

Contingency Plan? I would like to know how we would almost double our flight load overnight. If we used half as many pilots as ERA, to do the same job, we would be about 30 pilots short. It would be VERY interesting. I think we would have to upgrade every pilot that is upgradable to make it happen. Wouldn't that be great
