Correct on the 400 at least, Bob S.

Yes, I am being serious. A friend texted it to me, not sure on his source. I’m an affected pilot too; so I’m hoping it’s true. Just curious if anyone else has heard about it?

I haven’t heard about the rest being recalled but should be a memo today or tomorrow about the 400ish. I’m hopeful as I’m an affected less than 200 from the top of the 1,721.

I’m somewhere just over 450. So, looks like I’ll barely miss it.

I wouldn’t be so sure, all I know is around 400. You’ll be back soon brother or sister!

It looks great if its a domestic manufacturer. Buy Back Boeing is the slogan. Or something like that.

Using bailout money to buy Airbus, OTOH, is a lot harder to defend. Mobile narrowbody plant notwithstanding.

Where are we getting these AE rumors? The only mention I could find from BS was Feb-Mar for the next AE, and that was said a couple of weeks ago. However, I find a rumor to be just as credible as 2 week old statements from a known source from the company. It’s like keeping us in the dark somehow reduces overhead and increases efficiency, or maybe it’s just funny to see the rumors we come up with.
”Haha Did you see they think the 787 is coming again?”
”I know! I can’t believe that one won’t die. They also think an AE is coming this week! What a bunch of goons.”

Does this mean the 777x rumor is false?

I saw things mentioned regarding upcoming AEs in a few Workplace Flight Standards threads.
I for my part would not be surprised if we see another VEOP. I’m basing this on the 350 staffing.

My opinion is exactly opposite...I think we will need everyone and begin interviewing in the fall.

what’s the scoop on 350 Manning? I know guys hitting 100/28 on reserve as recently as Oct. sounds short-manned to me.
