Not a peep about newhires or upgrades, just more information on the PBS we never wanted.

Not a peep about forcing all of the airbus pilots that haven't done IOE yet back to the MD80 either.
....working here...words from the VP Flight Ops yesterday. 20 NH's in Jan and another 12 by March or June. JC said to keep an eye out for the next NH window.
I just heard about the Airbus folks that did a MD-80 sim check to get re-current. Kind of extenuating circumstances, don't you think? Would you rather keep the flying in-house, or continue to sub-out block hours to Falcon and Sun Country?
