Not without an unusual event. But ask the guys who got hired at mainline between, say, '98 and '01 how their careers worked out for them. Events like 9/11 or another Mideast oil embargo will park 50-seaters in an instant.

Point is, nobody can predict what will happen in this industry. Given the frequency with which the majors shift their FFD flying around, anyone who comes to a regional for a particular aircraft or base and assumes that they'll be able to stay in that aircraft or base for an extended period of time...is likely going to be unpleasantly surprised.

So, rumor has it we will pick some 175 flying from AA. .. discuss

It is my understanding that there will be lots of AA flying ... In ORD but also PHX and LAX. But all CRJ as far as I can tell...

This is not 2001 and there wasn't 1200 retirements per year...they will not retire the 200s and as much as I hate to say it Skywest will be around and they will continue to buy regional contracts. I hate the regionals but until young pilots realize they are worth more and the lives they protect are worth more than minimum wage regionals will be part of aviation.

Just that.... Rumor. All the 175s that are coming online are spoken for by United. So unless we have a handful that are not on our books yet, its all CRJ flying

Can someone please share what airline code we are supposed to use for the TravelPro website? I've tried all sorts of combinations and can't get anything. I emailed travelpro two weeks ago and no reply.

Thank you

And you expect pilots to earn their required Part 121 turbine experience in order to get a job at the majors...how, exactly?

Watching YouTube videos while staying at a Holiday Inn Express?? :D

Hello all,

I have 2 questions about pay here at SKW:

1. On the 'Crew Pay' page on Sked+, is the pay calculated off of 'Assigned Credit' or 'Processed Credit'?

2. What is the difference between taxable and non-taxable perdiem? How is it calculated?

Thanks

Non taxable i believe is when your pairing has layovers in different cities whereas taxable is when you have a day trip with a pairing beggining and ending in the same city/state.
