With the flow being gone and being owned by TSA, they are scrapping the bottom of the barrel with low time regional FO's and CFIs.

There were plenty of regional FO's that got on with CPZ when the flow was intact. I fly with a bunch of them now that they are CA's. XJT, Comair, Eagle FO's that left after 3 or so years. (some were even junior to me at my last regional, such is life). A few are check airmen.

I personally know of two females that were hired at CPZ with no PIC time that flowed to Delta already. So saying all CPZ pilots hired were high time pilots is not correct.

1) Flow to NWA. (At the time, told that was the only way they'd "get to NWA".),

2) First hired were LCA and/or immediate Captains again.,

3) Base options (QOL)

Many friends of mine at Air Wis, when Compass started hiring, chose to apply/interview/get-hired, if for no other reason than to get back to a Midwest base. (At that time, ZW had the scenic bases of PHL/DCA/ORF.)

I know personally two people hired at DAL with 0 TPIC. It goes both ways. Just have to meet the minimums and know the right people.

If so, how long were/are they allowed to stay in that status--do they have to come back this time around or be cut from the furlough ranks? If the answer is 10 years, how were they able to stay on furlough status after 10 years from 2001? When did furloughing last take place?:confused:

Hi,

Not sure if you Q has been answered. But below is why, as fNWA guys had a 14 year furlough clause.


There is one exception to Section 21 C. 7. c. above. You may be permitted an extension of your furlough period for up to 14 years from your date of furlough if, no later than 30 days prior to the 10 year anniversary of your furlough, you provide written notice of your intent and availability to return to duty within the ten year period, but are unable to do so due to the fact that a recall or new hire class is not available to allow you to return to duty. Once you have submitted your letter of intent, you must return when the first recall opportunity is offered to you.

If with the recalls and then hiring they went 50/mo in Nov, Dec, Jan and then 20/mo from Feb to Sep, what would the flows and off the street hires look like there?

It's basically all recalls and compass. Compass has the first 20 spots in each class till they reach the limit, then they must back fill with 9E guys. I don't see them hiring anyone off the street.

Obviously this is pure speculation, but based on your scenario it could look like this.

Using 100 Fur/Byp recalls returning, and 110 for the CP 25% limit (could be aprox 108-115).

Nov - 50 furbys
Dec - 50 furbys
Jan - 20 CP flowbies, 9 XJ, 12 SSP, 9 off the street
Feb - 20 CP
Mar - 20 CP
Apr - 20 CP
May - 20 CP
Jun - 10 CP, 9 XJ, 1 SSP
Jul - 9 XJ, 11 SSP
Aug - 9 XJ, 11 SSP
Sep - 9 XJ, 1 SSP


Again, just a possibility. I just wanted to say flowbie!
