Heard it from some friends who fly for XJT, and yes it's ridiculous. But more to the point, Skywest owns ASA and XJT, and the only reason why you guys aren't one company is because Skywest is non-union. This alone has created the whipsaw at Inc. That whipsaw could have been prevented had ALPA been voted in.

There is a difference between actually being a scab and displaying scab like behavior. My point was to never label someone a scab unless they have crossed a picket line, fly struck work, etc. There are many folks who are not scabs but display scab like behavior. The Mesa pilots could have undercut the regional industry back in '01 when J.O. tried to get them to sign on crap 70 seat pay rates. The MAG pilots said no and J.O. started an alter-ego named Freedom Air. Skywest pilots just sit it out and let everyone else do the heavy lifting. So to be clear, I never called you or any other Skywest pilot a scab.

That's cute. Hope you enjoy flying the crumbs. Meanwhile, my MEC (UA) will continue to push for preferential hiring of ALPA pilots.

All the best!

what is the reserve time for a new hire at IAD?

ScottyDo

Deltajuliet answered this question for me awhile back but I think he said 4 weeks but he or someone else needs to chime in because I'm not sure.

IAD is really heavy on FO's right now. Reserve is 2 months or longer currently.

flyingmau5

How long is reserve for the ejet guys?

deltajuliet

Yeah, revise that to ~2 months. Subject to change with the closure of Charlotte.

Xdashdriver

Hard to say since the operation is so new, but it looks like 1-2 months at the moment.

So for the CRJ guys what do you think Bose A20s or Tellex 850s?

I *heart* my 5x5 with custom ear mold!

Use the on-board Telexes because they're free and you're making poverty wages.
