Also, number 1199 on the Oct. 13th global list, is 1156 as of today. That means 43 left in 5.5 weeks. In that same time I've moved up 10, and I am around 2/3 down the list. So, 33/43 people who left were in the bottom third of the seniority list, i.e. have been here 14 months or less.
This will be fun. No idea who will fill the right seat of all these new planes. But JO needs to hurry up and figure something out to stop the FO bleeding. It's high time pay goes up. That's the only answer.
I completely agree with you that JO needs to pony up some money for the pilots. But, don't we need some better ALPA representation first? We just elected some MEC and now we need LEC and then for these guys to find some negotiators and get them trained. How long will all of this take? And we are around the holidays and these guys won't do sh't until after Jan. 1st.
