Piedmont PHX Flying (Part 3,294)

[JaceTheAce]

Take it however you like, but this is straight from Mr. M.S. on the company website Q&A forum:

Q. Their is a rumor coming from sby that piedmont will start flying in phx by next year summer. A. We are in the process of performing a business analysis to see if a western operation could prove to be cost effective. There are many hurdles to overcome and we are working through each of those issues. We don't want to put the cart before the horse here, but we are excited by the possibility of performing flying out west. More to follow.

If they take my 800 and 10 I would love to fly down there. :laff:

A. "Their" is possessive. For example: Mesa currently has a PHX Dash-8 base, it is currently "their" flying.

And if this rumor would prove true would that be a farewell to the Mesa Dash-8 flying?

Why do educated pilots have such a tough time with spelling and grammar. I mean, this is elementary level stuff.

A. "Their" is possessive. For example: Mesa currently has a PHX Dash-8 base, it is currently "LCC's" flying.

Sorry....

All (both) of my airline jobs have been living off flying that other carriers (for whatever reason) choose not to do.

I know how to use their, they're, and there. But I make that mistake typing online sometimes too and don't notice it right away. People are only human.

 

[JaceTheAce]

Hey now, I didn't ask the "their" question. I was merely copying and pasting what was on the wensite. Although, I do sometimes make grammar mistakes too! We are all human.

I don't know...you tell us why when you ask a question, you don't use a question mark. I mean, this is elementary level stuff.

Back to hiding.

So about that Piedmont and their PHX service?

 

[BobDDuck]

What the hell Mike? You want a thread to be ON TOPIC?

That's asking an awful lot.

On this whole website, that's the truth!

I should start posting our memos or (god forbid) some of the Crew Trac messages. You'd have a field day. The people that write them claim to be high school graduates. Some even claim college. How they passed English, I have NO idea.

 

[N826AW]

Isn't it cheaper for US to outsource the flying versus doing it inhouse?

 

[CamYZ125]

Jace, I know it wasn't your mistake. I was just having fun with it! I hope you do get your phx base!

PSA is the cheapest US regional partner. I would imagine Piedmont is second? The only big cost for Airways is obtaining the actual airplanes.

I think Mesa has a few extra Dash-8's sitting around now!
