Furloughed guys need to get recalled then any openings go to furloughed mainline then off the street hiring. Sounds like they are putting the cart before the horse or someone in HR is trying to look busy for her boss.

If PDT is parking 4 aircraft and maybe have 11 parked when all is said and done then PSA might will have to pick up the flying. This is probably why they are at 1000 and 500 for their mins. That way the PDT pilots and other furloughed 121 guys will be competitive and 600 and 50 will go to the bottom of the pile.

Somehow I highly doubt PSA management thinks that far ahead. Almost guaranteed no recalls at all until things go really south in terms of staffing there.
Most likely it's nothing, a lot of airlines are accepting aps but they're not hiring. But at the same time it's kind of weird because PSA has a bunch furloughed but the page made it seem like there was real intent to hire in the future with all those additional minimums. Probably the Mesa situation, who knows.

Yea, I would agree with you on the Mesa thing, If Mesa goes under PSA and all the other airways express airlines will be scrambling.
I'm truely not trying to be Debbie Downer but it's PSA folks, and sadly as with everything else with this company from the furloughed side, we are looking way to far in to something that will probably turn out to be nothing again.

Dude, I love it man! "Debbie Downer" I swear I use that term every other day lately... Yes, I also agree that PSA Does weird stuff all the time..So who knows! I wouldn't sell the farm on it

Air Wisc just gave USAirways a bunch of cash. IF the CRJ is to replace the Dash (on those great CLT-CAE and CLT-ASH runs), then I bet they get it before PSA...and that's "MR. Downer" to you.
