New seniority list is out. I moved up 44 numbers...
Amazing. When I started out 4 years ago, I was number 1800 something, now I have moved up half the list, yet I am still just as far from the bottom. How does that work? Way to go Comair!!
If you are curious...on Epic. Go to Crewmember Services -> Crewmember Seniority List
Most junior active pilot is now 1088.
As far as furloughs...I'm going to guess 47.

Seriously, Can anyone think of another job in any industry, (not just aviation), that pays less than $36K per year that expects their employee to be home only 10 days a month??? I have $100 riding on this so I hope the only answer is a regional F.O.! Any other job in all the U.S.A. will count as long as it can be verified!!! IMHO I don't think there is one.

Never mind those signing bonuses, paid housing, no $50k entrance fee (for licenses), and the promise of free or greatly reduced college tuition. Of course, being an Officer in the military has it's own costs, risks, and problems, but to simply say "Jr officers and enlisted men don't make $36k" isn't a fair comparison, because there ARE significant financial bonuses that aren't included in that $36k number.

I know a rumor is a rumor but what are the latest rumors on the number of furloughs that are actually floating around? I'm not asking what people are guessing or what people think the number will be, but I am asking what is the number floating around on the line. I only ask this question because I am so close to the bottom and from past experiences the number I hear from actual line pilots that have been to meetings with the president and such are normally more close to the value actually about to be laid off. I know this question will only have a few responders considering most on this board are furloughed but I am trying to make plans. Thanks in advance.
P.S. And once again, I am looking for actual numbers you have heard, not the numbers you are guessing!

I heard 120. One thing to keep in mind is that DS approached the union with the talk about a co-domicile using LGA. This would really suck and I would hope the union is against it. My thoughts here are the company leaking rumors of furloughs in an attempt to use that as a bargaining chip with the union to use the co-domicile.
Being furloughed would be a nice break for awhile from JFK so I say furlough away.
