AQP? We never did a true AQP. It was literally an annual re-qualification that we called AQP. It technically was considered CQ I thought? Help me if I’m wrong.
And CRJs getting parked or Ejets too?

Is it the lack of captains from attrition? Lack of FO’s? Crappy planes? The new AA CEO slowly taking away routes and giving to other regionals?

Lack of FO’s right now. Lack of captains in a few months. We are so short of pilots that MX isn’t really a factor anymore. Plenty of aircraft sitting around.

And a ton of new hires sitting at home on the ejet side…

She was not only rebuffed but insulted. So she walked. The THREE people it took to replace her have not been able to do the job with any similarity or efficiency. It's not even close. Nothing has been the same in the last 4.5 years and it's continued to degenerate. I've toyed with offering the help fix it for a few months but I don't think I could even do it. I would hire her back with any bonus I could afford. The company has lost so much money for their stupidity. It's just astounding.
I can’t remember her name. But she was fantastic. I left there in ‘17 and my memory ain’t what it used to be.

It sounds like the old “step over a dollar to save a dime” syndrome.

The new criteria is pilot staffing. The airline that has the staffing will get the flying..... as airlines with contracts they can't staff have their contracts stripped away and given to those who can staff it.
We called this back in 2014-2015.....
Dude,

Honestly- if you can’t pick up the complete sarcasm in his posts, then PM me. I have some swampland in Florida I’m trying to offload and a big red bridge in San Francisco up for sale. Hurry, they won’t last long.

Then I guess taking a 175 to Kingman, AZ to be stored was just a waking dream. And the other mesa 175s that were already there with the windows foiled up were just a hallucination. And the nice folks there who brought us a 15’ ladder to get out of the plane must have the aliens from the Roswell crash who relocated to Kingman for more affordable hangar rental. The Untied gate agents knew all of the 70 seat 175s were going to the desert to be parked before the mesa pilots who ferried them out there did.

Give it a rest and stick to hosting on-line D&D in mommies basement.
