IMHO the only 200 flying we'll do is the "at risk" pro rate stuff we currently do. Skywest makes a lot of money doing it and mainline gets the feed from cities they no longer want the risk of serving. That and EAS routes.

Great news for SkyWesters.



Hopefully JB22 can upgrade before he loses his job one day to the incredible shrinkage that is clearly around the corner!



Don't feed the troll!

Starting CRJ class on the 19th. Is it still looking like ORD out of training is doable or is everyone pretty much getting DTW and MSP?

Would give my left leg for some DFW flying. I'm sure lots of IAH guys would like that too. ExpressJet has a handful of CRJ-200 flying out of DFW. Wonder what is up with those? The earnings call said that all the -200's for AA are being parked, which means about 11-12 in PHX and about 5 in ORD? Gotta hand it to our management though. They know how to secure flying for us, and if they can't they put find some at risk flying out there. I did see that the 175 is starting some ORD-MKE flights this month, which I think is mostly at risk. United mainline is taking DEN-MKE. Accord to our map, that was at an at risk route as well, which is fine. Customers really do not like the -200.

Still leaves about 10-15 that need to go somewhere. I'd imagine more will go to ORD.

Well was AA not scoped out?
Or was flying these routes?
Old RAH 170s?

I have no doubt in staffing ability. We grow every month and here it looks like 12 200s are parking.

Great news on the American flying. Would love to see more DFW flying but I guess I shouldn't hold my breath :rolleyes:

Is there a set finish date for the CRJ ground course starting October 3? Is there a set start date for the sim after completing the above ground school?

Thank you!!!
