talked to a union rep last today about teleconference last night. he said the unions two sources of the rumor are
1)a mx guy that said 2 mx guys went to do pre-buys on crj-200's
2)flight safety saying they have been told to expect crj-200 training.
they have no confirmation of anything, and will be talking to the company about it in the upcoming week. fwiw, prater was in the teleconference too, so i don't know what kind of plan they are coming up with. probably nothing effective considering the nmb is still 2 rep vs. 1 dem til our pres elect is pres. even if we were to get released when that happens there is a 30 day cooling off period. by the time all that happens, ts could be gone and it could be all gj.
another thought is they don't screw us (unlikely) and combine the two and phase out the emb's and get crj's to have the common type fleet. just my opinion. or they may just be keeping their options open. who knows, its impossible to predict this place.

Not much ALPA can do about it legally? Then what do we have ALPA for, what do we have contracts for, what do we have unions for??? You can't tell me that at the creation of Gojet our union didn't expect this to happen right? Are you guys suggesting that our union didn't think about what's to stop Hulas from transfering over everything to Gojet Airlines????

We did have 10 OPTIONS to lease the freedom rj's, unitll mesa won the injunction against delta. ATR did take our management on a test flight. IF TSAH would get props, it is likely they would choose the ATR because there are already manuals, training and people typed it the a/c. (It would make the proving runs easier). Untill we are completely done with american we can not get ATR-72's again. (Our old ATR's were grandfathered in by serial number).
