- An Aviation News update about the recent Delta announcement of its Delta connection regional airline consolidation, Endeavor Air's new aircraft and an in depth look at its current fleet
As an Endeavor Pilot this was a great little history lesson
Glad you enjoyed. Great to see 9e still growing and doing good. Some of us remember the not so good times lol
MT Aviation Photo & Film -MTrain999 I’m praying it’s not a pattern and us young guys can be safe till our DGI dates rolls around
I would say you guys are safe. Mainline has put a lot of thought and money into the company and has picked the leadership Endeavor has so it runs how they want it. If Delta was ever going to get rid of 9e it would have been back in the Pinnacle day with all the 200s but they saw some kind of promise and gave the 40 new 900s. Having seen first hand the "quality" of the product Express and GoJet put out at least from a MX prospective, there is reason Delta pulled their flying. For a while Endeavor was doing reliability mods for both carriers. We also handled on call MX for ExpressJet at some stations for awhile before they announced the wind down in their DC flying. The ExpressJet crews would call in all kinds of crazy things and cite the fact that we would actually fix the plane unlike their own mtc.
@@MTAviationPhotoFilm Couldn't agree more with your statement, every single one of my ExpressJet operated Delta Connection flights were affected by maintenance or had on-board MEL's deffered. Also Endeavor has picked up a bunch of GoJet's CRJ's and they are maintenance nightmares & were received in horrible condition, no surprise both were promptly given the boot. Will be interesting to see how Endeavor, SkyWest, and Republic all come out of this COVID-19 mess.
@@airplanegod Yeah, when 9e got the 31 crj700/900s added to its fleet of 81, pilot write ups went up by 50% on the fleet which is funny since those planes only made up 27% of the 7/900 fleet. Mtc was just starting to get a head of the curve with modifications and planned maintenance improving the reliability on the acquired aircraft when they started getting the GoJet planes and had to start the process all over again.
I went on a tour of the delta hangar back in 2016. I love the delta fleet
Endeavor Air is a Special Olympics Iowa sponsor and they loan us one of their CRJ900 to us for our annual Plane Pull fundraiser at Endeavor Air hangar at DSM Airport!!!!!!
You missed Colgan air which also was in that merger
Didn't miss it, only talking about the Delta side in this video
Well when "daddy Delta" feels like you should be no more, you're no more. I really hope they learned from their Comair days as SkyWest and Republic hold a lot of leverage now. So do Endeavor pilots when the CBA comes up.
Yessir, you're right.
Sux that all the legacy ASA/Expressjet employees got the "Comair treatment" by Delta. I guess we should have seen it coming....
