So getting them from the desert, fixing them up, maybe a little bit of retrofitting, and preparing them for service I’m assuming?

Think most are in stl already. That’s problem. It’s more corrosive there

They were all sitting in front of the hangar. I think we've gotten 3 of them repainted so far.

Those ones that were in the old blue and white United paint between the parking lot and the hangar. Wow those looked rough

After signing the new agreement with UAL FO mentioned we would be getting more UAL airplanes on top of the old HK airplanes. We'll see....

I don't believe one word that comes out of his mouth...

With that being said, if we can staff what we have, I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised if United gives us more.

Agreed... the question to me is: Will people believe the DEN domicile junior nature this time? It really seems like it is happening for real now. DEN is definitely the junior base. DEN based right out of training, FOs holding lines immediately off of IOE, and DEN line-holding captains with less than 2.5 years at the company...

That was previously unheard of for DEN. I really feel like we are the regional to be at for all who want to have a DEN base, have a decent pay structure and contract, get in, get their time, and get out before 50-seaters are gone...

Unfortunately it's happening 2 or 3 years too late for some people, but this seems to be the real deal. Denver is the most junior, and probably will be the biggest domicile. I think den, STL and ORD are being assigned in training or immediately after atm.

IDK about STL, but ORD isn't being assigned right out of training. It's actually tough to get into ORD right now and even 1 year FOs aren't able to really hold lines there. I assume they will get more flying there, but from what United said it seems as if they really want us ramping up DEN flying.
