I heard that the 717s coming from Southwest can be flown purely by happy smiles, bad jokes, and free bags. So.... pilots won't be needed and there will definitely be furloughs. Delta sure did pull a fast one on you guys. But they didn't win everything, they'll have to start letting bags fly free again. Small price to pay to be able to furlough a couple thousand pilots.

I took that update as very negative. It looks like just about every category is displacing including MD-88 as the 717's arrive. I already mentioned on hear I have heard the furlough word mentioned a couple times recently. That might not happen, but it is pretty obvious that we are still a few years away from hiring. I personally think it could be 5 more years.

Now Jughead I'm not saying I agree with hockeypilot on the topic you're discussing, but I did find the following sequence funny. :)

Hockey, I also thought the update was negative, but I think you are taking it a little too far. When I say negative, I guess I mean compared to my expectations which appear to have been a little too high. Overall I think the bid will be net positive, with a bunch of new NB Captain positions, but falling short of what I was hoping for, which is a bid with few or (gasp) zero displacements - just positive movement. It appears to me that a lot of the advancements will be cancelled out by displacements - this is very disapointing. Then again, maybe we will be pleasantly surprised. :D Scoop |
