zero between 5/2012 and 2/2013. 33 on the seniority list between 2/13 and now. They probably hired more than that, but some probably quit or got fired.

What's the over under on double premium pay this summer? So far my phone has not been ringing for JR mans, so I don't think it's very likely, but there are a slew of FOs getting ready to move to greener pastures.

I've had 3 JRM calls on days off, didn't answer, in the past month. All July trips are PRM. I bet we see DBPRM second half of August and September

Was there any change in the junior man language with the new contract?

Cannot see Piedmont surviving as a business unit of USAirways post-merger. The airline is run on a tight budget enough as it is, and then to imagine a re-fleet with a top-heavy seniority list? Why on Earth would they do that?
I believe that what happened at DL/NW post-merger is going to happen at USAirways (and the wholly-owned subsidiaries). They will be sold, or divested and draconian consolidation will follow and RFPs to operate any "new" flying or airplanes.
JK incident, I was there...Quite a shock to say the least, but not really surprising either...

Keeping the previous junior man language is near criminal.

So what's with the JK thing? He finally spout off to a classroom full of guys who had some flight / life experience and they tell him to shove it?
