Haven't you been "puking" misinformation & cynicism since you've been on this board? :rolleyes:

There's most definitely a high level position for you in the ranks of DPA leadership!!

It says Check Essential has been put in charge of pilot selection.

I'm pleased to announce the first class has already been filled:

Funny, my last day of active flying was yesterday, I now am on a very sporatic possible fly-list until recalled..........timing could not have better!

Welcome back! The landscape has changed immensely. I love it....well, maybe that's too strong, its still work....but I like it a lot.

The indoc for furloughed guys is pretty casual but pay attention, most of the pay/benefits/PBS stuff has changed.

737 LAX
We own the night! :eek:

We definitely do...and its kicking my arse. We also own the "wake up at 3:00 AM on the east coast body clock time and fly TRANSCONS" slogan. Those are worse in my mind. I'm so over the "Be All You Can Be" before 7:00 AM first sergeant.;)

There are guys in my newhire class and other friends who have moved on after 10+ years. Some at FedEx, some at other carriers, some completely out of flying altogether. The FedEx guys ain't coming back, the JetBlue guys, I imagine, are split.

Now Mil Leave is "a whole 'nother thing." Most of the ML guys I know are already back. They got their retirement in and returned.

Oil prices suck. Especially in California.

I have a feeling (just like the majority of the older than 60 dudes staying until 65), a majority of the 200 bypasses will come back. Just a hunch.

Hopefully the newbies will enjoy flying with Capt Longrod Von Hugenschlong!

Well its still next year as this year will be classes of pilots already hired over a decade ago. But still. Hope the growth AC thing comes true.
