Eagle has a flow thru? I thought nobody had a flow thru, and the last flow thru before it got cancelled was the guys hired before around Aug. 2011 at Compass had a guaranteed interview with Delta mainline when they met the requirements... no?

Just got confirmation that there have been PSA pilots hired by mainline, yet when management gets the word on who is hired, they are calling mainline and getting them to retract the employment offer.
Is there any legal recourse for this? Evidently, the company doesn't want them hiring too many pilots from us.

I guess that they hade 3 resignations for guys going to mainline and are expecting a lot in the upcoming months. But I find it hard to believe that if Mainline extends the offer that PSA can call and have it taken away. If someone has hard evidence of this then yes I'm sure they would have a legal case.

For every PSA/PDT pilot that mainline hires a total of 3 US Airways family pilots need to be trained:
1. Former PSA/PDT pilot trained at mainline.
2. Former PSA/PDT F/O trained to replace pilot #1 above.
3. New hire PSA/PDT pilot trained as FO to replace pilot #2 (above).
However if you hire non PSA/PDT pilot Airways only has to train 1 pilot, which is much cheaper.

10 year PSA pilot $100,000/year
4th year PSA f/o $40,000/year
1st year Mainline f/o $35,000
Total $175,000
Now if all we put in new positions...
5th year new PSA Captain $70,000
1st year PSA f/o $25,000
1st year Mainline f/o $35,000
Total $130,000
Plenty of money there for training 3 people. Not to mention movement is healthy.
