Careful guys, you might end up on a hold file for 3 years and never get an offer

So are the Skywest pilots currently on the VAA seniority list ?

No, and the VA pilots are not on the VARA list either!

Don't forget that its not only the VARA pilots to join the VA list but the VA pilots would also join the current VARA list. So there could be benefits for the VA guys if VARA is used as the vehicle for expansion in Charter and Freight. Why else would they need 8 more F50 FO's!

I think VA's freight aspirations have higher hopes than F50's!

More about utilizing currently underutilized platforms than devoting new frames to freight I think.

Don't think they would put more ATR crew on when the current guys are grossly under-utilised. Doesn't make any sense.

Terms and conditions won't change though, the pay etc will remain VANZ. Only the AOC/registration of the aircraft changes

Yes, been on hold for almost 3 years now. Didn't think they would ever come through with the goods!

You must have been deadset on Virgin atlas, I don't think I would have had the patience to wait 3 years when there were other options. Well done.
