Not too much training scheduled right now past October. All MD11 line sim techs going back to the line for November and into peak.
Now don't confuse what's been planned with what will actually happen. For the past few years I've been scheduled to fly the line during peak, only to have them call and drop a crapload of long int'l trips for me to crawl back into the sim and teach. I'm pay protected for the trip drops of course.
Once they can take a guess at staffing req's (DHL, US/China economies, and the merger with purple announced) they'll decide whether to train over peak. Personally, my gut feeling is we don't need to hire much at all for another six months.

Did you sign up for this message board just to ruin someone's day? One single post and that's all you have to say? Wow...

Yea, your right Av8or, that was cold, especially considering it was my first post. Sorry Johnny.
I figured that all of us that frequent these boards and work in this industry could handle an insensitive comment now and then. Ill try not to make too many.
