Come on Breckster, your the communication life line to all the furloughed guys. How else will we get our rumors?

Well...... not much new to report. The A380's are on hold and NK is going to try to be a 5-Star class airline instead of a -3 Star class ghetto cruiser carrier.... Look out Qatar, Cathay Pacific, Kingfisher, etc.

I really am not all that well conected...... and ACY is "way out of the loop" when it comes to rumors. (actually nice)

Had heard the proposed Mexico destinations, out of SAT, are on hold????

Hang in there boys, hopefully you will be back soon; If there is another round I will be right there in the soup line with you

I have to agree they are kind of like their own company up there.

Furloughed pilot / now turned entrepreneur (patent pending ‘Weed Cutting Golf Club’):

http://www.patentlysilly.com/patent.php?patID=6988954

…stated HR was contacted regarding health insurance premium checks. HR had not a clue what he was talking about… Why is this not surprising?

Let it be said, the Union at Spirit are first class members. Those of us furloughed thank you. Or better said, in the words of our brethren, Captain David Morlando, “Thanks to all of our pilots for approving the assessment helping our furloughed brothers and sisters with their health insurance. This show of support has not only helped our pilots financially but sends a clear message to management that we are united and willing to sacrifice for the greater good of the entire pilot group.”

Better than ACY in my opinion. At least there are crash pad options near by. Thanks for the voluntary. I only needed 124 more of you guys and I woulnd't have been furloughed. HAHAHA

So how much longer are you all going to wait it out before moving on to bigger and better things? Just trying to find a temporary flight instructing job down in south Florida is a no go. I can say though that my house cleaning skills are outstanding now.

I've been working on my 12oz curls. Besides wanting to go lay down in middle of traffic, it's not so bad. So this is what it feels like to be a teacher with summers off...

Hey, I'm getting tired of reading the same ol' cr*p on this site. Anyone hangin' at another site? Or are we all doing web gaming...? Police academy was an option until the wife shot it down. Now I'm doing home improvement projects.

Why hasn't anyone thought of a NKS Furlough Club? Anyone in/near PHL need a 12oz spotter?
