Nothing backfilling the 700's going off UA contract, eh? That sucks, because unless there's some new fleet news for XJT, I guess that means Mesa or commute. So commute it is...

United will also add nearly 100 Embraer 175s with 76 seats to its feeder fleet as part of the 50-seat jet reductions.

I don't remember stating you were any of those people. Don't be so sensitive, it's very unbecoming of your reputation. It's all good Mike. You should really be more concerned with the Horizon dudes coming for your Alaska ejet.

Too bad the pilots have to find out via inflight chief email to flight attendants.

United is really trying to help Mesa staff all those 175's for pennies.

Can someone post said email?

Was it only sent to IAH FAs?

I'm confused?? I thought the forums were not an official communication source for SAPA? And yet that is the way a majority of our group gets their information?

Still no meeting notes since Oct of last year, no information on policies that SAPA is voting on or considering and when someone tries to ask on the forums they are personally attacked by current SAPA members.

I'm not a black helicopter type, but it would be really nice to have some transparency on what is going on. What's the status on the pilots that were bypassed to the 175? What is being proposed by the company for the 91 flying by retired pilots and cadets that are building hours? What is being done about PBS after TC did his research? So many questions, so much silence....
