Notes from GS.....Man Dir tng......no hiring for 18 months except FDA F/Os. Expect another bid in Jan for FDA F/Os just to see if any have changed their minds and want to bid it....which if more do, equates to less hiring as we are overmanned. They have a supprising number of aps from guys with 757 and A-300/310 time which will give them a leg up. They consider A-320 time to be equivalent. There is a rumor about us "parking" jets after peak....he said none to the desert but they may put 4-5 widebodies into required mx early. Good/bad for poolies, depending on their background and desires....... but news is news.....
