Good luck Kirby......I used to fly a 76 seat jet I'm sure mainline pilots can learn how to as well.

Instead of trying to convince us to release scope maybe he should ask us how we can work together to fly 76 seat jets at mainline.

Deal. I'll come up with something.

Retirements will continue.
We'll hire to at least cover attrition if not a little more in 2018.

How's that?

I saw it. I asked so someone else could give a summary. Thanks!
I didn't want to be accused of spreading negativity.

Non starter. That should be the marching orders from the membership to the MEC.

Kirby's Cleveland "large RJ" video on FT. Makes me cringe a bit. Says pilot's contract prevents more rj's and it's in our best interest to have more. He can have more rj's if that's what he wants. Just give us the snb.

That video was a shot across the bow and we should fire back. It's the first attempt to turn 80,000 employees against the pilots.

See I knew you were gona say that.

However In the other videos of the same event Kirby is adamant about growing mainline. So I'm optimistic about growth movement and new airplane orders.

Reading in between the lines CLE will close as a base followed by GUM.

At this point I highly doubt a frontline employee will buy more United Express as a good thing. The utter incompetence of the operation for many years has caused dismay far beyond the flight deck.
