The biggest impact with the memo that came out today is Rod Remley leaving. He is a good guy to work for. Sorry to see him leave

This is a guess, but I'd say between 30-40. Last class began on tuesday. The one prior is getting ready to go to sims next week. The one prior to that it's still in sims. Between 10 to 12 per class, and I'm sure there's something else I might be forgetting.


Btw, Ryan Gumm for DS?!?.
Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it!.
Have dealt with the man before, so can't really say this is an improvement. Time will tell.

I hate to say it and sound like Trailblazer, but things will only get worse for us. If you are still furloughed, don't count on coming back, if you are currently in training, get through it ASAP and at least get current. I still stand by my original statement I made a few pages back, September will not be a good month for us and it will be filled with bad news unfortunately. I've already said we'll see some more management changes coming, as you saw with today's memo.

I'm still optimistic my friend. I do believe and hope more folks will be called back and we should kow of this by end of september (a guess). I don't think we are sold nor will be sold for a while. I hope and wish the contract negotiations get off on good footing because it behooves both the company (DL) and the rank and file to do so. With that said, it's time to play the patience game. Hurry up and wait!.

Of course, this could be wrong. If we can get Bubba to chime in, he could confirm or deny.....

This is true, we have reopened the MX base in RDU as well as one in DTW. I believe they all reported last week.

So we get new management from mesa means the end of us? Ok sure.. Wasn't the same thing was said when Bendo came aboard. So its ok to pick up open time now, because the sky is falling.

Mesa can't buy a cup of coffee while in BK. Maybe Delta will be buying Mesa after they exit BK.
