So how does this make sense? How can a company such as RAH, who is in negotiations for a new contract (IE, RAH does not know their cost structure with a new contract for pilots) bid and win on new flying? I assume this will probably screw the pilots over big time as RAH is doing the flying at super low rates (based on current pilot pay as its among the lowest) and will be unable to give any raises out, as that would result in unsustainability for the company.
I always heard that "our" company could not bid on new flying while in negotiations because of the massive uncertainty to the companies budget, and therefore without a contract, no new flying. No RAH just runs out and gets flying got 53 airplanes?? ***

Thanks to the agreement, American will offer “more flights at the right intervals throughout the day in key markets,” said Chuck Schubert, American’s vice president of network planning.

Quickie pilot mill may not be an entirely fair statement. The place started to help military pilots leaving the military (with good training and experience, mind you), obtain an ATP so they could get a job with the airlines.

I thought UA had a no compete clause, so wouldn't this flying have to go to Republic Airlines? I heard from a friend that is the real reason your 190s are leaving Denver. Because, they aren't allowed to compete with the United Q400s. Any idea where the pilots are going to be based?

looks like Eagle just took a another torpedo to the side. This announcement should really ramp up the hiring spree there.
I think i can already hear the crickets chirping over at centreport.
