If our july bid stays come october at xjt we go down to 160 captains so 300 pilots total out of 1450 on the list keep jobs or we fold completely. UAL doesn't need the recruits cause they can pick from fully qualified regional cargo military and LCCs all day long once hiring resumes in 3 +years.
If i was UAL id scrap it, tell the 100ish people in the pool they'll honor the commitment and get rid of the administrative cost dump the flight school etc.
Sounds like someone butt-hurt they didn’t get into it... All the people who made it into the program did nothing to you or anyone else clamoring for its downfall. It was an opportunity some people were fortunate to take advantage of at the time. We all got caught with our pants down and if they want to keep the program dormant for a bit so long as it doesn’t cost anything, what’s the issue? I mostly think it’s guys like you who didn’t get the call are the ones that want to see it crumble so you feel better about yourself.
