I'd stay where you are.
I don't understand the hiring and recall. Initial rumors indicate hiring of 700 pilots. Even if our entire LAX base decided to quit, that's ~150 pilots. Something else is going on behind the scenes...
Are you going to take the recall?
Haha thanks jake....XJT O'Hare based. I live in detoilet
Seeing how DFW was a former ASA base that closed in '05, I'm sure there will be a few happy ExpressJet guys that still are around there. Who woulda thunk after Delta dumping DFW, that 7 years later DFW would open up again. So I'd probably be happy too.
Also, here are the destinations out of LAX...SAN, ABQ, SMF, MRY, TUS, SLC, FAT, RNO, SJC, SBA, SAF, ELP.
Not really sure why AA would want -200's though...
Interesting since SLC, SAN, ABQ, and ELP are CRJ 700 routes for us.

I think AE should give us some more information with our recall letter such as the future fleet plan and explain why they are recalling after giving up some flying. AMR is still in bankruptcy. It would be hard to leave where I'm at now since I already have over 120 people under me on the mass seniority list at RAH and I'm holding a line but that Miami base would be nice.

So confused as to why Eagle will hire. Either they arent telling us something or they dangling that carrot in hopes people wont jump ship.
You and me both.It's not really fair to be mad at the guy for being happy about living in base. But it does just go to show, the regionals are no place to be long term. I'm at SkyWest, and am already trying to make my next move. I like it here a lot, but it won't last forever as we've seen time and time again.
I used to catch rides from LAX Eagle guys out of FAT, and every one of them were great folks. I sincerely do feel sorry for the hardships they face with moves and/or commuting now.
I'm not familiar with that term, sir. Can you please edumacate this here young'n?!I'd keep my powder dry.
Some people tell me at AE, which of course is all just speculation, that Eagle would like to get some A319's and/or CRJ 9's in the fleet to replace the MD 80 guys... again... all speculation, but it would make sense if rumors came true...
