That is why Republic is merging CHQ and Shuttle before moving large numbers of pilots from the 145 to the 170. Even though they are all on the same seniority list, any pilot moving between certificates requires full blown initial training. Once the certificates are merged, only differences training is required.

We were offered flying. But of course the numbers weren't what management liked. They are still working out the details to make an agreement. Famous last words "supposedly we will know soon". During a meeting "Someone" said something about a west expansion.
A more legit rumor is iPads by December to everyone. 6 month trial phase. Which means you still have to carry the Galaxy tab and Jepps.
Plus those waste of space ship sets. I guess Max is making the mounting brackets for the plane.
So... yes, more flying in the works. That's what the hiring is for. But, still doesn't mean we will actually get the flying.

Which is a pretty legit concern considering that would more than double the size of the airline. We're definitely not THAT overstaffed. I'd say we have guys on property to fly maybe 5 more planes, MAYBE.

If you announce it, pilots will come. It's worked out pretty well for psa, compass and mesa. At least so far. I don't think this overstaffing has anything to do with new flying, they're just stocking up on bodies so to speak. There's rumors that guys are starting to quit. They should be worried.

Well, this is what happens when people start to realize you feed them a line of **** during the interview.
