Was one of them CE Woolman himself? You were one of the first 07 hires :eek:

2 regular line pilots that had retired.

The picture I attached I think sealed the deal.

Fixed your post Clamp.

If I wind up at GoJetsss, can one of you guys maybe send me your used ALPA Magazines every month? They're like crack. Can't get enough.

You can have mine. ;)

They normally go straight from the mailbox to the trash. A really sexy cover will catch my eye from time to time.....eh, not really.

10 of Comair's CRJ-700s are going to GoJet. Way to support the race to the bottom, DL mgmt.

And that's before 70 additional jumbo RJs arrive on (off) property! Darn DL mgmt supporting the race to the bottom! :rolleyes:

Well 76Driver was off but 251 with 42 being 744A's means that DTW will see positive movement. We will see what the end result is but I admit that I saw 130-150 max taking it. The initial number is better than I would have guessed; 225-230 tops.

We could have easily furloughed the last few years, but they keep offering just enough early outs to mitigate that.

It's economic and the same reason they are not offering leaves over 12 months. They got burned giving three years leaves in 2010 and had to hire. They cannot predict where the economy is going to go, and as a result prefer to be slightly overstaffed to move quickly if needed. Of course when you can turn a profit the carrying costs v furlough for a min ROI is easier to argue.

I'm disappointed in you guys. You came up 49 numbers short for me to be able to use this graphic I made.

Oh well, I'll post it anyways.

We will see what they do with 9E. Buy em and destroy em or fold em in to ch7. Something appears to be up over there.
