They're taking 175's off of the CPA and replacing them with 900s. All allowed per the agreement

You didn’t watch the video. He’s trading 175s for 900s because that’s where the staffing is currently.

‘If they stay within scope, do UA ALPA really have a choice for it to not be onboard….. it’s unfortunate.

UAL ALPA official response is a little different than SK’s recollection

UA ALPA can’t do anything about it obviously, but “being on board” is not a good look. I hope that was just Kirby speaking his interpretation on the matter.

Since it hasn’t been posted on here-
and only Mesa pilots know the weight of their Crj900-

“50-Seat Aircraft” means aircraft certificated in the United States for fifty (50) or fewer passenger seats and a maximum certificated gross takeoff weight in the United States of 65,000 or fewer pounds. The definition of “50-Seat Aircraft” does not include “37-Seat Turboprop Aircraft.” If a 50-Seat Aircraft is certificated for fifty (50) or fewer passenger seats when first placed into service by a United Express Carrier but is subsequently certificated for operation in the United States with a capacity in excess of fifty (50) passenger seats, this aircraft type may continue to be operated by United Express Carriers as long as all United Express Carriers operate such aircraft type with no more than 50 passenger seats and no more than 65,000 pounds gross takeoff weight.
“70-Seat Aircraft” means aircraft configured with more than fifty (50) passenger seats but no more than seventy (70) passenger seats, and certificated in the United States with a maximum gross takeoff weight of 86,000 or fewer pounds.
“76-Seat Aircraft” means aircraft configured with more than seventy (70) passenger seats but no more than seventy-six (76) passenger seats, and certificated in the United States for ninety (90) or fewer passenger seats and with a maximum United States certificated gross takeoff weight of 86,000 or fewer pounds.


are your planes above certified for 86k or lower.

Different airline, it’s a good source to check the basic stats for RJ’s.

Awesome. Parking less than 5 year old ERJs for nearly 20 year old CR9s (look up some of the Mesa FJ regs)
