If a position notice comes out in Q1 2013 I wouldn't expect the effective date to be until May or so. Aircraft freeze can be enforced if they want to keep shuffling to a minimum. In any case they needed to issue the current position notice to staff DFW. They may not be sure enough about summer block hours to post a comprehensive notice this far out. If attrition takes off we might start to see regularly position notices every few months again. Here's hoping.

Heard between 100 and 200 (near term, and not including additional hiring in 2013) on the CRJ side starting immediately... just a rumor though, second hand, so take it just like that... rumor

Ok. Is it a fact* that Costanza told a pilot they're better off on furlough? Is it a fact* that Bells told our MEC that they were calling the shots from now on? Is it a fact* that McKnight tried to push through SmartPref as a primary bidding system without knowledge or authorization of either pilot group? Is it a fact* that your MEC told our MEC they were stalling negotiations because "not one XJT pilot deserves to be furloughed" (after we agreed to hire their furloughees with no strings attached)? Is it a fact* that one of your 6 year ORD Captains "informed" me that "I heard directly from my rep that the seniority merger WILL be relative, and my 6 years will put me senior to your 12"?
*Trick question. These are all facts.
Tell me again who's driving a wedge? Oh, yeah, it's Big Mean Captain Tony because he stirred the Pipe and too many people got their little panties wadded up at the audacity of it. Not your MEC and their shenanigans and obsession to steamroll us. Yeah Ok.
Grow up. News flash, vast majorities of ASA pilots hope we stay separate. And it's starting to look like we'll get our wish.

Joe's quote I have not seen but from what I have read he posted that on the pipe? So we'll go with that as a fact. Everything else is HEARSAY spread by you and others. Unless you can provide me with correspondence in the form of a union email or memo. I don't believe anything that anyone says on these boards and no one else should.
Grow up? What have I said that's immature. Or is that just you stirring the pot again? You're exhausting and I don't know why I continue to engage in this discussion with you. I feel you do a disservice to both pilot groups.

News flash: we are one company. The less we fight each other, the better off we'll be.

Oh lord. Let it be known this guy doesn't speak on behalf of the ASA pilots. I haven't talked to a single pilot that wants to remain separate. Most of us are educated enough to realize two separate groups are excessively detrimental to all sides, and we want a swift and happy marriage. Don't believe me? Look at USAirways. Some of you need to spend some time away from this site rather than letting your blood pressure explode.
