Ok Barney Stinson. That next level doesn't exist though, because American and American Eagle have no authority over the flying they do (AMR awards the contracts). Any other contractors flying under the American/American Eagle brand received that flying from AMR. Still no subcontractors.

Yes your right. However as we get more, and we may get ALOT more 100+ more 700/900s, the only FOs who can get on it will be those displaced, or new hires. If attrition is keep scale with shrinkage on the ERJ side, many may get stuck watching themselves go more and more JR on worst and worst EMJ flying, while new guys are holding lines after 2 months on the line, and doing what is now MIA 737 flying all month. It is what happened in LGA.

Now, that's for the CRJ. As for the E-series, I was told by the ORD LEC, that we can only bid for it on the first vacancy bid.

Ya, well I am not going to commute to ORD from MIA, in hopes that it helps me later down here, but I agree its a smart move for you. However the LEC rep is smoking the pipe dream of the entire union that we will get bigger planes and all be ok in the end, just pass the TA and lets move forward. IF they come many will move to it, however if they dont, we can all sit around and watch attrition be matched with fleet reduction.

Bad thing is that they have 60 vac for FO in MIA... If they are jr than you that's great, if not it will suck.

However the LEC rep is smoking the pipe dream of the entire union No, the ORD rep is there to fight for us, you just cant find him.

History would say that the majority will be the bottom of the list, over 50%, I bet we even see the majority of recalls sent here. However I def could be wrong, just taking a crap shoot. I also think that MIA might be one of the last places to see a bigger airplane base IF WE get them.

That's good for us the FOs but bad for the CA. Anyway any upgrade will be getting ATR pay, even if it flies the E-145/170s/190s or CRJ 700/900.
