I'm deployed right now and will be back this coming Dec. I originally wanted to fly in the military, long story. I ended up not being able to because I couldn't go to college right away so I took the next best thing, shooting stuff. lol I saved and saved to pay for flight school, worked and got my hours, got hired by Comair, layed off and reinlisted. lol I'm an Oct 08 furlough and if I don't have a letter by the time I get back in 6 months I'm hoping to come back overseas to do contract work.

Flying the 10, as in A10? Thats my fav! Oh, no bad ass here, I just run really fast and I think I'm a decent shot. I did service rifle and sniper competitions and was ranked in the top 10 in the US in 2000. I'd trade any pilot in the military, any day!

I agree. I don't think any of the November furloughees need an entire initial. I was on the line after training for well over a year.

AF guy? I probably don't. I did have two AF guys in my sniper school class but AF only does half of the school. That show wasn't on when I was doing competitions back then. I'm planning on competing on 11' after I get back. What's OTS? Forgive me, I'm an Army guy.

Default Recall Update

Spoke with Debbie in HR today. She said that after speaking with Ryan Piper they aren't sure if they are going to be issuing another recall but should know something by the end of this week. Said if they do issue a recall will most likely be for additional 20 pilots. She said that there were rumors that the 8/01 recall group may not all show up and also that other Majors may be hiring soon increasing attrition rate. Said if the do issue a recall people would be required to attend 7/18 training class.

I sure hope so I would love to be back at work.

"Said if the do issue a recall people would be required to attend 7/18 training class."

I would have no problem with 7/18 and would look forward to it, sure wish they could let us know soon so I could get things in order.
the sooner the better for me
