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.

also being talked about in the "PSA Updates" thread... good luck everyone

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?

Save your sanity and improve your mental health: don't try to understand these things.;)

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

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.

This industry is not what it use to be......time to move on....cut my loses

have a good one

I caught the fulough just barely and I was a December 3rd hire. Most sr furloughed was also in my class.

Hey what happened to Lisa Brame?

I'm going to grad school, any one wanna come?

Also, i love the graffiti in the CLT "crew" room.

Im thinking about it, if i dont get in by next year then... know of any colleges that have a meterology program? Atleast we know there will always be weather and the price of oil wont effect it.

Not a clue, but I see that you got the email as well. What number are you in the pool?

Well, don't leave us hanging...

I love the way those idiots removed the crapper door to stop the graffiti.
Oh well just use the the base Chief pilots v-file;).
I feel for our PSA family members and wish you guys the best in these hard times. We need to be Wholly united during both of our next contract talks!!
