New leadership at pdt was planned well over a year ago.
We should take all non Wisconsin related stuff elsewhere though.

A very simplistic way of thinking.. Our management isn't full of mainline puppets. AWAC is privately owned, not wholly owned. There is a big difference when it comes to management....

What happens when pdt begins to cancel more than I already see? Will the flow continue and/or will the flying shift to someone else?

From what I know they will start parking dash 8's. Jets are and will be the priority.

Aren't you supposed to have far more -145s online by now? Word is you guys couldn't get your training signed off by the FAA and I guess you gave up and outsourced it and had Flight Safety come up with it for you?

I only have seen maybe 1-2 145s in PHL and they seem to never fly.

Commutair did it the smart way by hiring an outside vendor to set up their program.

I think they got 5 planes now with one down do to a fire issue.
It's not been a rosy start for sure.

Was talking to a pdt fo the other day, he says those jets they have are a nightmare for them so far. That smoke j guess was possible becuase their mechanics were doing some ADs properly or something. Every time I see them in PHL they are always on delay.
