It is 100% the case. Skywest does not want XJT. Skywest does not want 50 seat planes. Skywest will not let XJT have any flying that is worth anything.

UA owns the planes. UA owns a large part of C5. UA wants someone to take care of the 50 seat feed.

I've been contacted by more than a couple xjet pilots asking me about the "bed bug" comment. Apparently it has spread throughout the pilot group, and is now on their private forums as well. Not a good thing. I would suggest that people who post use some discretion. Our pilot group at C5 is not about this kinda crap. It also makes life much harder as a commuter when riding on xjet.

I have found 99%of Commutair folks to be professional and humble. This guy No Lies is not one of them and is definitely harming people's opinion of the group. He's stating crap on many of the boards. Fortunately he is no longer part of XJT.

All this talks about terminal A and C5 won't be parking at those gates.

As far as taking anyone's job, that is for UA to decide. The flying that we do, belongs solely to UA. If someone else used to do the flying and they are upset about it, then they need to complain to UA. I spent many years at XJT and saw the writing on the wall a long time ago about what Skywest wanted. I got out and will do what I need to do to take care of myself.

If anyone is upset about anything that I posted, then you just need to look at the facts. I am not happy about any of the time that I lost at another regional, but it is the facts.
He/she clarified.

Short answer is Yes, but the training department is running behind however. So "should" hold an upgrade quickly but will wait a little while to get qualified.

Well good things come to those who wait as the great "Mr Heinz" said lol. So do you have to complete FO checkout first, or upgrade within training? By gap, how long of a delay currently? I know the guy starting has a ton of prior 121 time.

Looks like a 11/28/2016 got a captain spot already. The seniority list was updated yesterday. No idea how many bodies we had for December. 340 currently on property.
