Sounds good! I wish we could have had something like that at Piedmont.

Nice! Congrats! Any word yet on new bases opening up with the closure of CLE? Is IAH still a possibility? Is EWR and IAD the only bases in the foreseeable future? What about the white Q400's someone saw in Toronto and said they were slated for CommutAir? Any truth to that rumor? Any info regarding this from those in the know would be greatly appreciated. Congrats again.

No new credible base rumors that I've heard. IAH seems to be the leading favorite, or it could be just EWR and IAD. No one on the line, and perhaps no one at the company has any idea.

I personally wish they would just send the fleet to Denver.

I think it's been mentioned that those 400s in YYZ are for Republic, if they can ever staff them. No Q400 rumors around here.

Need 20 hours in the last six months according to the website. How flexible is that? Retiring military guy here. P3 driver. All the quals (civilian and military). 4000+ hours. Clean record, but out of the cockpit for 12 months.

They need all of the help they can get. Go ahead and apply.

Don't think this will do it. If you're voting yes to save your job and the company you just might find yourself doing the opposite. $30 for first year? Others might pay less but offer bonus that C5 does not. Also, second year FO pay is still less than the rest to fly the loudest, smelliest plane ever made. No proper comforts of a jet with APU's and a management team that does not care enough about you to not to give you airport standby the afternoon after you finish a standup.

Match Skywest in pay or no thanks from me. Vote what is best for you and your family.

Go work at SkyWest then. Tired of hearing you complain...add up years one and two at CommutAir and it's still better than SkyWest.

C5
$30
$32

SkyWest
$22
$37

Heck you would still be ahead in pay by year 3 because you could have a chance to upgrade by then. So CommutAir has a chance to have the highest first year pay of any regional and you are still not happy? This is a good step for all regionals.

Default New CommutAir Pay and QOL LOA (proposed)

I was surprised to not see a resolution to the reserve after standup issue issue myself. Certainly something to ask our union guys about.
