I was worried that the concessions we gave up in the TA regarding more flying for reserves, SCs, and loss of X days during the summer months would mean a need for less pilots. But that concern was allayed by my union when I was told the improvement to vacation would dictate a need for more pilots. So rest assured, we're going to hear about it any day now--hiring is coming soon!
Speaking of, I found it a little troubling that the 717 aircraft will be based in DTW and ATL, but Crew Resources has yet to decide where the crew bases will be (other than ATL?!?)
