We had about 4300 hours in DTW in June and around 3800 hours in July, after parking 2 aircraft. Plan is to park the last 3 aircraft in July, so our hours in DTW should be around 3000 after that, if the reduction is following the same pattern. 27% of 3000 is 810. So, something around 2200-2300 hours left. Why even have a DTW base with so few hours?

Best wishes to those still hanging on waiting for better times or opportunities. Reading e-mails from our union leadership, and this silly "Comair Rebuild" slogan makes it pretty clear they have exceptionally low expectations about what a pilot is worth. It's truly sad.

MEC Q&A:

Q: What do you think will happen in September?
A: At this time it is too early to determine. This schedule change was not anticipated and Comair Management is not aware how the future distribution of DCI flying will continue. this uncertainty is the reason for the program instead of making staffing changes now.

So there's a chance we may still be here in September?

Umm I hope not! Comair has been the fish flopping around on it's last breathe for the last 4 or 5 years. Our union is useless and just bleeding me dry. I would love a refund of all my dues over the last 6 years.

I am guessing our merger fund was spent on that crappy coffee at the coffee beanery across from ops in dtw. Those coffee talks were a joke just to hear "umm we can't tell you that at this point" for every question I asked!

Just get it over with already. We the junior guys would rather see the company shut down. I hope our union guys realize that no one is going to vote yes for that doo doo contract. I despise our union and ALPA as a whole.
