Just wanted to let you know that I heard one of our fabulous captains say "I'm in the top 50, so this doesn't mean much to me at all" and then he smirked

Sorry to hear that guys. I flew there for 6 1/2 years. Another sh*tty Delta move. Hopefully airlines will start hiring in the fall. I know CAL will start hiring soon and hopefully its not all the United guys.

120 furloughs coming in April, with an end target of 560 pilots at the end of 2012.

I just know you all are going to give it to them to save Comair.

It was right in the announcement. What do you think it means when they say several times that pay needs to become competitive?!!!

I walked by the union guys at the table in the pilot lounge about 30 mins ago. They said communications between the 2 groups have been pretty good so far.

RacerX didn't bother to read the fact that almost all the people who orchestrated that will still be at Comair, (1999 hire most junior)...hey thanks RacerX...you stay classy!
