Airline Pilot Central Forums

It's something like 100 175s over the next year being deliverer. We're losing very few CRJs, a lot are going to other partners, 700s replacing 200s for American. Skywest is growing, the pilot group will be between 4500-5000 before long.

Not quite. 104 total ERJs planned to be in the fleet by June 2017. Already about 54 in property, so 50 more.

I meant the 200. Everyone knows they are on their way out. No amount of koolaid will stop that. I've only been here a year but man do they gulp it down here. There are still guys who think they will be able to retire here. Ha. Ok.

Uhh! Last I checked the United 700s are on the way out. We all want the 50s gone, but they are like a turd that won't flush. What is the deal you ask? Scope is the deal.

While fuel is cheap we'll have as many -200's that we can staff. They're cheap and SkyWest knows how to make money on them. Even though our partners don't want 50 seaters, they won't say no if we keep putting them on at risk routes. I don't think -700's will be going to Pellston or Bemidji.

How many other regionals have at risk routes? Are we the only ones??

I imagine any FFD who bids on an EAS route is at risk, but in the case of a WO like Envoy it would be "at risk" for who?

I recently heard "major airline" landing in Bismark. Bismark.

When they start sending mainline to Thief River Falls, then we'll all know the regional game is over...

That's being held down by PC12s right now.
