They have. Unless they plan to reduce the 70/76 fleets of Mesa, GoJet, Republic or Skywest we won't be flying bigger planes. That said, their 50 seat scope is far from maxed out, and if we can staff I could see us flying more 200s if that's what United wants.
Problem is, and always will be, staffing. Unless we offer something other regionals don't have, we will never attract the quantity of pilots we need to expand. Or more importantly quality to make it through training.

So Air Wis reviewed my app for AT, sent the "come on over" email and the rest of the paperwork is FO app by the looks of it.
Confirmed that it's the AT I'm applying to, doesn't seem to matter for the recruiting team, email says come over for the pilot interview event.
Anyway, I'll be over at the ORD on Friday.
Suggestions welcomed

They've still got some serious ramping up to do on the hiring side if this "18-24 month (or faster)" upgrade is going to come to fruition... combine that with the attrition in training and we're still running uphill. As much as I hope this becomes reality, I'll believe it when I see it. It is, however, nice to see them taking things seriously when it comes to attracting potential applicants.
