I was told by 2 separate reliable sources that its a distinct possibility. Swing as how most of these companies have dash 8s, 1900s, and crj 200s near timeout, I deduced the rest. It makes sense to do it that way; especially since you don't have to retrain the whole b list all at once, which saves money and confusion.
Both of them start with a p

From the horses mouth... and by horse I mean "THE HORSE."
Option for 30 more E175s on top of the 30 (60 total).
10 More 900's (to be announced any day)
They are working HARD with United on a flow. (They don't want us here anymore than we want to be, longevity costs more money for the company)
And the big one..... We will be purchasing American Eagle then parking all the 50 seaters. This won't happen next month or the month after but more like over the next 2-3 years.
I called the 175s last spring. It happened. Let's see.
A lot is happening.

Question for anyone who can answer it.....
How are constant duty overnight accommodations handled at Mesa when a CDO status occurs ? Are crews put up in hotels or left to fend for themselves ?

Ha, no they put you in a hotel. However, I believe CDOs or standups won't be legal after Jan 1 anyways.

CDO's will still be legal, but more restrictive. I can't give details because every time I try to read 117, my head ends up spinning.

Well there goes EVERYONE'S seniority. New guys... You were a line holding CA 2.5 years from now, until all those senior guys piled in ahead of you. This will devastate the bottom 2/3rds of Mesa's list. I hope you're very wrong on this prediction. We need new blood under us, not lifers ahead of us!

Career expectations. Will operate as separate carriers. New hires today will long be holding CA lines before any SLI.
