Flying with a new Bus captain who just finished training. Here's the skinny he got straight from the route planning honcho & system chief pilot:
- Continental management made a lot of decisions that didn't make sense (i.e. preferring the Guppy over the Bus without having factual information to support view); company is beginning to unwind some of these bad decisions - Continental didn't like the Airbus, hence its placement as a super RJ in the route system; suggested this will change (specifically mentioned Bogota Guppy limitations that don't apply to Airbii) - Company is not happy with the 787. When it works, it's a rockstar; when it's not ready to fly, we're getting hammered on cancellations. - Despite its limitations, the company is getting Guppies so cheap they can't afford not to take them - Net gain of 100 mainline aircraft; used Spirit Airbii are in the mix along with the Chinese & maybe Turkish Airlines Airbii as well |
Sounds about as objective an opinion as one would expect going thru an upgrade course in Houston, albeit with different vindictives.
