As long as Jerry is on the board, that won't happen. I do have an unwavering faith, whatever is happening will be painful for the average pilot.

I'm a 3/14 hire and I could've held a line both for aspen as well as regular last month.
I took the targeted line holders for February (137) and looked up the hire date of FO #137 on the seniority list. I was pretty sure when I posted it that there are a lot more line holders in DEN but that would be the most junior person I could guarantee has a line without talking to other junior pilots in DEN.

Xjt has had a CTP course for a bit now so maybe they are just using the same course?

Which is why they still need to clean more house.

I don't know who AS is (probably someone in scheduling if pilots hate her that much) but regardless, JA needs to go, yesterday.

You need to also look at the ASE pairing/line page, because the pilots in DEN cover ase as well. That has the number of Aspen lines, and reserve lines. I was hired mid 2013 and have a classmate now in DEN holding an ASE line. Several friends junior to me in DEN holding a normal line.

Do not underestimate the "power" of JA's convictions. I will wager that JA will chain the doors shut on Expressjet before he merges lists.
SKYW is in the codeshare partners view, currently Inc, employs 1/3 of the regional pilots and by default 1/3 of the entire regional airline sectors flying. Inc. is the singularly most important piece on the chess board. The airline that manages to control Inc., will control their competitions feed. Now that the major sector is done consolidating, the next phase is the regional sector. SKYW Inc.'s market cap is small enough to be interesting and is far too small to ignore in relationship to its consequences for the majors competitors. Think about how the non-acquiring partner would be affected if, for example UAL acquired SKYW Inc. and then controlled SKYW DAL feed, or vice versa or LUV or AA its becoming interesting.
