That explains why they are looking to fill 33 F/O spots on the 70/90. I know they were short last week as well and canceled a few flights because of it.

AUS ain't bad I guess if you have a long layover. Don't have any long layovers in AUS on the 50. I'm not looking forward though to those JFK-AUS flights...

AUS used to be great when you were downtown, but now there isn't really anything close by except for the Gents club up the street and walmart.

My point about the 30 hour layover is that utilization could be better. Looking at the CF7 staffing grids we are short pilots every day, but it seems like we are all sitting somewhere for 3 hours here and 4 hours there and then the long layovers. I have a 23 hour sit in JFK for what? It was a one leg day report at 1800 fly to AUS and I'm done.

If any commuters are interested, there's a 70 seat ferry flight ATL-CVG on Sunday at 1435. It's a 9400 flight number, but its pre-scheduled so I assume its just a repo.

Speaking of ferry flights. Can we still ride on ferry flights? What about a maintenance ferry? Anyone know?

You can ride on ferry flights. If you have 19 or more people you have to have a flight attendent.

You can not ride on a maintenance ferry flight unless you're a required crew member.

Oh goody! Company-wide net conference on March 11th with the Prez and some others to be named via e-mail in the coming week. Dude's been silent for quite some time. Everyone ready to merge with Mesaba? Let the rumors begin!

Where did you hear/read that? I didn't see anything on Epic. Are they suppose to announce something?
