I have a question. How does Express let you log flight time if you are the one in control of the aircraft? Do you get to log it pic? If you aren't typed you're always SIC correct? however if you have your type are you able to log PIC if you flew the leg?

From what I understand under the new agreement that exists ExpressJet will have 25% of their flying taken from them in February by Chataqua how can they possibly say they wont furlough! and how can expressjet guys not be worried about it????

An SIC typed FO can only log SIC time in 121 ops. In order to fly as PIC you would need to complete the company's 121 captain training for that aircraft...a generic PIC type rating (say from flight safety) is not enough.
An FO who were to acquire a PIC type on his own dime could theoretically log PIC on part 91 repositioning legs, if the company and the captain agreed to it...but good luck with that

That's what I keep saying. Maybe they know something we don't...

Yes, 69 airplanes in XJT's fleet will no longer be flown for Continental under the capacity purchase agreement. Just because those airplanes aren't working for CAL does not mean they are going to fall off the face of the planet. As it stands now, 15 are going to be doing corporate charter work (we have been told the contracts are already inked but we haven't been told by who). They haven't said specifically what the rest of the airplanes will be doing but they DID unveil the ExpressJet Airlines paint scheme and most of us suspect branded point-to-point flying. To the best of my knowledge we are still in the running for the Midwest Airlines flying but not much has been said about that lately. So no, the general feeling is that we are not worried.
