The best part is the guys that would bash RAH pilots because of the "engines under the wings" will now be first in line to bid it.
I haven't heard bashing of RAH pilots of because of engine location. I have heard people bash RAH management for the treatment, pay and QOL they offer their pilots... |

Eh, maybe... Many senior cats don't want to go to training for the same pay as the 900 which they're already on. If anything, it'll be a pay decrease because now they go back to 75hrs for the duration o training.

I can't imagine anyone at SKW bidding for it unless it pays more than what they are flying or they can get a better domicile. Unless somebody is just bored and wants to do a training event....:rolleyes: Actually it might be a good move for anyone who been stuck here for years and wants to move on, it would show that you're still trainable. |

If the E175 pays the same as the 900, it would work out to be a slight pay raise because currently y'all fly all three jets at different pay rates if you're on the CRJ.

The 175s will go junior on the captain side.

I have heard of some guys saying they fly a real airliner because of the location of the under-wing mounted engine. Seriously? It is actually quite comical! So somebody should inform all of the Delta and AA mad-dog drivers that they are not flying a real airliner because their engines are located aft of the wing.
Come on guys!! Who cares! It is more important to base your career off of pay, QOL, benefits and the company that will provide the best possible movement so that you can MOVE on and OUT to a real airline! As for me, I have chosen not to upgrade at my current airline, which is NOT the best because of QOL. I am hoping that as the future opens up, as I have seen a handful of right seat to right seat movement that this trend will continue. So do not base your decisions on where the engine is, who cares! Base it off of QOL and pay, when it boils down to it, we all work for a REGIONAL Airline, oh, and the 170-175 is still and will always be a REGIONAL jet not a transitional jet!! Who came up with that!? :cool: |
Any Skywest guys want to take a guess as to the domicile the 175's will be placed?
