They give you kibble? At Comair we're not even worth grade F feed.

I hear over at Skywest they get fancy feast!

Looks like 177 Pilots. Mid December '07 hire date and later seem to be the ones affected

Appears that they will not furlough out of seniority, it will be the lowest 177 pilots on the list...

Maybe there will be few furloughs, but many terminations of probationary pilots

They're all probationary pilots at the bottom of the seniority list so...

FYI, I failed to mention the Big Chief's email/letter stated we are "accelerating the E135 removal for Delta" "with them being gone BY SEPT. 30th" Plus CRJs are getting pushed out the door as we speak/type.

Holy $hit.....buckle up guys, it's only just begun.

I pray Ol' Faithful BB has a little somethin' somethin' in his back pocket he's not telling us yet.

They can't seriously do that can they? I was under the impression that once you pass your PC you are on the list. Obviously those guys are still on probation, but I would assume they would still hold their seniority if they were furloughed and recalled.
