PSA furloughs again?
 
just heard from a buddy of mine at psa that they will be furlough more pilots on top of the 27 that they already had on the street..anybody have any input?

Yes, unfortunately it's true... and it looks to be worse than you say.

Just got the company email tonight.

49 Additional FO furloughs effective 9/1... in addition to the 27 June 30th

33 Captain Downgrades.

Good luck guys.

I dont understand, Airways stock is up, Oil is starting to come down, and PSA is furloughing more pilot? Found this out after an email from the training department telling us that classes wont start until the end of the year. But its probably more like next summer.

What's the hire date for the highest furlough number?

Yes.

They still have the same number of airplanes, but they going to be under-utilized. How many people they expected to lose this summer? About 76 (27+49=76!). Attrition has stopped, or slowed to a trickle. So PSA is overstaffed by how many? 76.

You can make more money as a CFI.

You can make more money ANYWHERE. Time for a real job.
