Default RAH and 190's

Alright, i know it's been brought up before. So today, i was giving one of our "old" flight attendants a ride back to RIC, and i noticed that she was wearing a republic lanyard. She mentioned that she's currently there working on the 170/75 and said that on weds. she goes for a type of differences training on the 190 because "we're getting 190's apparently"....Anyway, i know that flight attendants are often not the MOST reliable source for airline information, but was wondering if anyone else had heard any information of this type also?

Is that the same flight attendant that suggested RAH is buying Compass? You guys have the most well informed FAs ever!

Think this one's a different gal, i actually didn't even know she was at RAH until i ran into her today she basically said "it's better, but still the same B.S. as Trans States" anyway, just thought i'd bounce it off you guys to see if you've heard anything, or, if it's common for RAH to do 190 training for the Flight Attendants also.

You never know, but she's never seem the type to NEEEEEEED to come up with B.S. just for the sake of doing so...I know some folks that do that however.

So have her show you her schedule with the training date, and some materials that say E-190.

I think that's reasonable, or you just really really really are bad at trying to flame bait.

I heard from a Republic flight attendant that the pilots at RAH are getting a flow through agreement with Eastern Airlines to fly the space shuttle. Any real confirmation?
