I hope to god we can pull this off, but I'm not very optimistic at this point. Im actually surprised people are arguing about how many actual airframes we are or aren't suppose to get.....at this point, we're just trying to keep our head above water with the dozen or so that we have.

Then why are they calling numerous people on a weekly basis who have told them no to interviewing more than once, as well as inviting back people who have left?? Call it a "slow down" but the name of the game right now is securing pilots. I don't care how backlogged we are, 4,6, 10 pilots a class ain't gonna even keep up with attrition.
Company needs a breather!? No, the company needs to get their heads outta their a$$ and start fixing this crap.

United has had it easy with their regional staffing, but they will have to pony up the cash soon enough just like their competition. The money that American and Delta have invested in their regional staffing efforts is definitely showing results. United can't expect people to rush the door to fly those shiny 76 seat airplanes for $22/hr forever...

The DO told us in the crew room a while back, they are not going to slow down hiring. They would rather pay you to sit at home then lose you to another regional.
If all we could wrangle for February is 8 people, I excpect to see some changes to the bonus structure. Hopefully retention bonuses all around.

Lots of changes to both fleets, tons of reported reserve coverage for both seats on ERJ. Waiting for the scheduling email to explain whats going on.
