Looks like all the eastern pilots from the last class ( started in september) are on full pay while sitting at home doing nothing. While the rest of us cant get a holiday, or personal time off. Whats wrong with that picture. Most, if not all of the people hired in september have not even started their operating experience training....

Chapter 3.4.A2 SAYS...
"PILOTS FLIGHT PAY WILL BEGIN ON THE FIRST DAY OF OE TO PERFORM THE DUTIES OF HIS/HER ASSIGNED CREW POSITION BUT IN NO CASE LATER THAN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE SUCCESSFUL PROFICIENCY CHECK."
HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU HAVE SITTING AROUND THAT HAVE PAST 30 DAYS SINCE THEIR PC....WHILE SCHEDULING, AND THE CHIEF PILOT IS BEGGING / PLEADING FOR PEOPLE TO SELL VACATION, DAYS OFF, ETC.

Wish I was sitting around collecting pay! Most of them are online. 2 were requals and have been flying for most of the fall. Others have been doing OE or awaiting CA obs. They’ve definitely been pumping them out as quickly as possible. Seems like all the sep class is online and most of October is done.

MEXI, again wrong. People from the class prior to September are just now starting IOE. Have a look at the schedule they put out today. Look at the bid for November, any people from Aug, Sept, classes on it - not talking about the people who were unfortunate to have to return to this mess - but the new names that are on the schedule, are from the class prior to September. Meanwhile people are being pressured to work, sell vacation, etc....
Swift need to slow down, get the house in order before further expansion.
