(Sr. involuntary furlough number is 6443(8/99), last on list is 7666
(3/08))
My guess: 800 / or #7243 on the list (8/00)
I was on 2nd year pay (757/767), hired 11/2000. (On second furlough now).
I hope it will take about 800 calls to get to the 200 UA pilots, but I doubt it. I think it will be closer to 400-500 since times are so hard. It just depends on how many were able to return to the military or get jobs vs. how many are still unemployed. As I am still unemployed, I will definitely take this job if offered, however I doubt I'll make this recall. If they hire another 200 after this, I think I'll get the call. Though I'm not holding my breath that there will be another 200 anytime soon since it is in their best interest to bring back as few UA pilots as possible.
