AUTHOR: /CARLSON,PAUL /ADDRS /WHQCM /EXPDTE:/ 081508
TO ALL PILOTS: *
THIS MORNING (8-1) AT 9 AM WAS THE FIRST DEADLINE FOR *
SUBMITTING A REQUEST FOR VOLUNTARY FURLOUGH OR SPECIAL *
PERSONAL LEAVE. *
*
WE RECEIVED 49 REQUESTS FOR VOLUNTARY FURLOUGH, ALL OF WHICH *
WILL BE AWARDED. WE ALSO RECEIVED 49 REQUESTS FOR SPECIAL *
PERSONAL LEAVE. ALL 49 OF THOSE REQUESTS WILL BE AWARDED, *
WITH MOST START DATES APPROVED AS REQUESTED. HOWEVER, SOME *
START DATES WILL BE MODIFIED TO REFLECT NEEDS OF THE SERVICE *
(AS PERMITTED IN THE ALPA AGREEMENT). *
*
YOUR FLIGHT OFFICE WILL BE CONTACTING ALL IMPACTED PILOTS IN *
THE NEXT COUPLE OF WORK DAYS WITH A FORMAL NOTIFICATION. *
*
ALMOST ALL PILOTS WHO HAVE RECEIVED A NOTICE OF INVOLUNTARY *
FURLOUGH WILL HAVE THEIR CURRENT FURLOUGH DATE ADJUSTED OR *
CANCELED, AS A RESULT OF THE SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF VOLUNTARY *
FURLOUGHS. CALLS TO THOSE PILOTS HAVE ALREADY BEGUN. *
*
I WILL PROVIDE MORE DETAILS IN THE AUGUST 2008 EDITION OF THE *
FLIGHT PLAN, TO BE PUBLISHED IN THE NEXT WEEK OR SO. *
