Nothing against you guys, I'm sure you're all a decent bunch to fly with, but on principle alone, I'd rather leave the industry, go ACMI, or make a lateral move outside of the Inc world. I can honestly say that mirrors the sentiment most of us share on the red headed stepchild side of the operation. We're escaping the trainwreck at a rate of up to 100/mo on the ASA side and about 60/mo on the L-XJT side. Inc can have fun picking up the pieces, and I hope that the financial penalties for not being able to fulfill their CPAs on our side really cause St. George some pain, it's well deserved.

Or they could go to 9E and upgrade in the same amount of time. Your year 8-9 pay rate is roughly 9Es proposed pay rate year 1.

Yet they told the pilots,and continue to this day, it's for 126 ERJs. I don't think it matters anyway because they probably won't be able to staff 100 ERJs. And CC has gone on record saying that it's economically unfeasible when it gets below 100. Anyway, I think he was referring to the DAL CPA that still has until November 18.

Plus they have the DGI whatever that is worth and basically only dual class flying.

Well, Inc created the bad blood, not the ASA/XJT pilots. 100% of the folks I've flown with have stated that they would rather start over at the bottom of the Endeavor list than take a hand out from the rats in SGU. Can't blame them, why go fly the friendly skies for the same people who destroyed your previous company? I'm fairly confident we'll all end up someplace better than where we're at without having to go through Inc.

Actually they are right though. There’s only a difference of a couple dollars between starting over at Skywest or starting over at Endeavor. Upgrade time is just as short there as it is here.
