I propose that someone win a $300 million lottery and pay as many regional pilots as possible to quit their jobs. Time to shock the system! Ahh, if it were only that easy... Good luck to all!

Doesn't have to be a united base. Its a big RAH Maint base, just talked to the MX today and they are hiring plus the co. is looking to buy hangar 1 in PIT, right beside our current hangar.

cuz that's how we roll here. Seriously, if we don't centralize our damn bases in the mythical TA that will come at some point this decade I'll use it as TP then light it on fire.

Bet if they opened a base in your hometown you'd change your tune lol.

they closed it already. and it was a hub base. I never got to hold it. Base your people in hubs. Your mx and flight ops are not related operations.

Does this flying have to be done with the Q400's? As much as Bedford hates props, could his plan be to get the flying, acquire or move 170's to cover it and sell the Q400's?

I don't think BB has a choice. The reason UAL loves the props is because it's cheaper when it comes to fuel (Which UAL pays for). However the downside is that the Q400s are more expensive when it comes to Maintenance. And UAL does not pay for maintenance. :)
