Though a bunch of CRJ-200s are getting parked elsewhere, the addition of aircraft at any given carrier is maybe a sign of the economy slowly recovering?

This year they'll be coming from Comair. Next year? Pinnacle.

Good to hear this news for the TSA guys. You've been bent over for too long. I have former Comair pals there, and having Stamper is a big plus.

So guys with 5-10 years seniority end up getting furloughed at companies like Comair and Pinnacle. Meanwhile other companies are hiring at first year pay. Seems like forced turnover to keep compensation low.

It appears to me that a senior Pilot group at the Regionals is merely temporary and may indicate rough sailing ahead. Skywest appears to be an obvious exception - What other regionals are stable - Horizon? Eagle?
