Job;
They stated that in the road shows. Firstmob; They will officially pull the trigger when they officially announce it. Until then it can change, just like last time. We were very close to pulling the trigger prior to JAL. No I am not kidding. Events that unfold effect everything, so depending on the events that could unfold, it may be moved up from the best guess or shelved again. A lot is still going on, as it always is. Like I said, plan as of today is probably early 2011. (the want a commitment from marketing not to pull the flying for a period of time and if they can get that they will do the base, and if they can't I suspect we will see TDY's) I've been reading back through old threads and not sure what you guys are talking about. Thanks... |

When DAL parks the last Airbus, the crew will deadhead back on a DC-9.
The last crews who fly the C-5s and C17s to the boneyard will deadhead home in the back of a C-130. |
yeah I am a little curious as well!

One's seniority often dictates what he/she thinks is the highest need. Obviously, a senior pilot is much more interested in pension issues than a junior pilot and that junior pilot is equally more interested in scope (specifically narrowbody domestic scope issues). Everyone must understand that wants and needs of a very age diverse pilot group differ greatly.
Just make Vacation pay and credit and the company would have to post one of the largest Captains AE in history. Go back to a real monthly cap and your taking a AE of epic proportions. |

Sir, we get it. The crux of this scope debate is, and always will be, the concept that the union can deal away one pilot's job and career progression for the perceived benefit of another pilot. It isn't either / or. |

Are we talking about furloughing or hiring? Pulling a trigger sounds like a bad thing. Not that it matters anyway. In this economy, there are no jobs to be had anyway. I would just sit around on the beach all day "with a PBR in my hand."

The pulling the trigger comment was meant for opening a Guam base. And we are much closer to hiring then we are furloughing. As a matter of fact, I think we will be hiring by the end of this year. |
