Redmond just announced service to PHX on Skywest 700's, so I guess those AA 700's Skywest announced won't necessarily be based crewed out of LAX

"American will use a Bombardier CRJ-700 series aircraft, which accommodates up to 67 passengers. Of those, nine are reclining, first-class seats.

The American Eagle-emblazoned plane will be operated by SkyWest, which also operates United and Delta flights from RDM."

Current proposed routing will be LAX-RDM-PHX-SLC-PHX-RDM-LAX.

Followed by EFB notification via magic. RJ will deliver us as promised.....to management. Lineholding will mean even less than it does now......

Probably being voted on right now at the SLC SAPA meeting. Good news is we will get one extra Golden Day, and a voucher for PBS training starting in mid 2017 to give IT time to make the appropriate changes.

Pretty sad to see the SAPA folks trying to call out everyone saying that we aren't getting loaded up with flying against our will. I don't want 90 hours a month, but I bid that way so my line will complete with the trips I want and not CN crap on me. Between that, the unnecessary forum moderation and the general lack of communication from our "advocates" it seems not much is going to change until we push for an EB or President recall. I don't hold out hope we could get a full Union drive going, but at least get pilots in there that want to represent our group.

It will be up to regular line pilots to start a union drive going. So I wouldn't hold out hope either.;)

It really is pretty sad how things are going right now.
MM at least had the pilot's backs when he was SAPA prez.

Things are only going to get worse with the spring block hours increase.
I have very little faith in our leadership to get through this without totally destroying the legacy of SkyWest.

I'm another long time guy that is now looking for a way out.
