Add my name to the list of former NWA pilots.

11 years at NWA and I have quit to go Brown.

HDriver...you got 6 months on me...I guess you'll get to pick your assingment first. LOL

Brian(bdr757) Congrats!!! i was a 20 Mar 00 NWA hire and we had another 96 NWA hire in my 2 july class at brown, As well as a 10 yr DAL guy...

You will notice the difference on Day 1(are you the current mec rep leaving nwa???)

Hopefully more will see the light, cut the emotional ties to nwa, and have the opportunity to move on and salvage a good career!

Four of us (out of 10) in my new hire class at FDX last year were ex-NWA. Dudes are jumping off of that sinking ship as fast as they can, wonder if anyone in management has figured out why.

Sorry, no MEC rep here.

This career move is a double blessing. Not only to leave NWA, but to also sever ties from the association!!!! It was time to "protect and enhance" myself.

I was June 23, 1997 hire at NWA, and started class in May at Brown. Sleeping well...

bdrB757 , you hit the nail on the head with your comment "to also sever ties from the association!!!! "

imho alpa ran a close second to nwa in damaging my career....

i will be leading the charge against them if they ever try to get IPA to join up with them.

it will be interesting to see how many more nwa folks jump ship. With hundereds of furloughed guys resigning and 10+ year guys resigning . I wonder when the bleeding will stop. I now just saw the online app has opened. I sure hope guys go into it with all the knowledge possible and realize that nwa is hiring unexpectedly because pilots are bailing faster than they are parking planes.

good luck to all
