500 overmanned but we want to keep 200 of them in the widebody seats for the upcoming 777 and additional MD11s coming.

I heard the 100 DW mentions is actually about 150.

If a furlough does occur it will likely be about 200 guys. Hard to call the retro thing insignificant with those numbers.

Saw DW leaving the AOC this morning at about 0230 local - he walked the full length of the AOC and not one pilot spoke to him. Does he not get it is time for him to go bye bye?

Saw almost the same thing yesterday afternoon during the day turn. The only person that went up to him was JL!:D

Just wondering if any others here have expressed to their rep that they want DW gone? I have but was not met with a whole lot (none) of support! My rep seemed to think I was the only one who felt that way.
So, you don't know me, but GET MOVING! It is just as easy to type an email as it is to type here.

Which block rep? Sounds like he lives under a rock.

what was your reps response?

DW Leaving
 

I've heard DW say in hub turn mtgs he is not running for re-election and two members of the MEC have confirmed that....I think his term runs out next spring.....not sure of that timing however.

Anybody else hear that?

yes i have heard that and Albie put that on another forum as well

I'm sure he'll be able to find a nice house in Herndon.

He wouldn't if he was the recalled ex-MEC Chairman.. that's why he shouldn't be left until his term is up. Harder to get a national position if you've just been recalled.
