Do you think this will affect new hires going into the 145? I interviewed and was offered the job today. I'm hoping for a 145 slot which they said should be November.... The reason I want it is because I'm currently typed in it and would prefer Phl for the base so I don't have to do a two leg commute. Hoping to jump ship and start ASAP... But in the 145. Look forward to coming over!

Captain 145 went through people on propert at a year. I would expect the captain slots to be a little senior as senior people start to transition. I wouldn't consider 1 year on property being senior.

Perfect! Hopefully all bases are attainable except SBY. My first choice is MDT and second is ROA.

Aren't they a few years from being sent to the desert anyways?

The scope is about full with 900's and 175's, will there be enough airplanes to keep Piedmont flying?

What is your management saying about this?

I know that you say you will get 175's, but why? They will need to take them away from Envoy to do this.

(I am honestly curious about this. Especially after seeing what is happening to Air Wisconsin, flying small and outdated airplanes seems like it would cause quite a bit of concern)
Check your emails everyone, Hogg just blasted out an email informing us on AAs decision to shut down PDT.

Thanks for the informative post, Old man. Quality per usual

What is the timeline for retiring the Dash? Over how many years?
