. . . But at the end of the day, it would seem that we have increased the fleet size by 49 but only the pilot group by 345 pilots. Why?- Motch |
Only way to bring more RJ's is to buy a regional and staple to the bottom... no way you can staff RJ flying at the regional level at its current state... cant even fill classes... you can bring all the RJ's to mainline. Otherwise, goodluck trying to fill the seats!

I will donate $100 to a charity of your choice if you or anyone else remembers this post and UAL pilots do not have a new contract and a pay raise by Mar. 31st 2020.

Somebody is going to do it. Not sure who. We created a "flow-through" but somebody is going to buy a regional. Maybe us. Then it should be a food fight to buy the rest of them.

Delta is NOT buying new aircraft. In fact ALL of their 717 were used from Air Tran.
SW is buying new MAXs but guess what so are we. our new MAXs start showing up in a few months. Differing the 737-700s were not bad for the company. We have ordered used airbuses that so far equal a little less than 50% of the 737 order. We no longer have OLD technology we will be stuck with for 20+ years while everyone else runs around with new technology burning less fuel. The only bad thing that happened to to the pilot group by the deferment of the 737 order was upward movement NOW. The MAX 10s will pay more in the long run and be cheaper for the company to operate. Not to mention there are now 100 of them on order instead of 65. Sounds like a win to me. |

You have read section one of the contract right? You under stand that they're shuffling deck chairs against the scope limits? As for the Whales, they were coming up on heavy checks that were going to cost more than the airplanes were even worth. Something like $60m per hull just in labor is what I had heard. Hence why they're being parted out and cut up. How is not upgrading approximately 650 pilots this year to SNB pay worse than upgrading 650 pilots to LNB pay 3 years from now? How about the new hires it would have generated? This is basic math, money earned earlier in your career is always better. I’m sticking with my original statement, anyway you look at it the cancellation(it was a cancellation we are never getting them)of the 65 737-700’s was bad for the pilot group, bad for the company. Is there anyone of you that doesn’t think we aren’t going to be parking PW powered 757-200’s when the max’s show up? Go look at the google fleet website and look at how old our fleet is. Do you think we are going to fly airplanes for 30+ years? Look at the backlog of orders at Boeing and airbus for narrow bodies. We are behind the power curve on renewing the narrowbody fleet, much less expanding it. |

I don't know how much longer Delta is going to be buying these. 220% tariff will be hard to swallow. If I were at Delta, I wouldn't be counting on these deliveries. :eek:
