You know something is amiss when there are pilots on furlough, and, simultaneously, street-hire Captains are being discussed. Isn't GIA a Teamsters property?
The program guys did their 250 hours, got "hired," and promptly furloughed. There may be a handfull that haven't been recalled. I believe the street CA discussion was raised since the growth plans call for more than doubling the fleet size.
