Was just told that the wait list for the E175 training extends into next year for new guys.

Whether recruiting was telling this guy the truth or bluffing because they want more CRJ guys and just assumed he'd switch if they said that, I dunno.

I think the right course of action would be to create a Union thread within the Skywest subforum if anyone would like to continue discussion about it. I think that's all he is trying to say.
Looking at other airline sub forums that's how they seem to do it.

By the way...it's early June. What's the hold up.

This thread is about a new "contract" and negotiations. Talking about the similarities between non-union and union seems appropriate for a thread like this. Just because you don't like unions doesn't mean it isn't appropriate.

If the new flying is just for 175s how do they expect CRJ pilots to be excited about it...?

I'm certain he didn't mean the word union couldn't appear if this thread, that would be ridiculous.

That's the nature an evolving airline. Things change. Eventually, if we get enough 175s the CRJ pilots might not be CRJ pilots anymore.
Think about the bro to the CRJ.
