well yes and no.
They will do this till they need street pilots, which should be fairly soon, but at that point it will only be CAL doing the hiring.
If United needs pilot on their side, they still have like 1400 on furlough, that would be recalled back to UAL, its a complicated issue, but it would be a long time till UAL side hires.
Eventually both sides will be one list, but I would betcha its hiring in houston with the same CAL guys.
I dont think any gojet/UAL recalls will be on hiring at UALCAL anytime soon.
