Nope but I had a 4 day out of MSP and now am home for 13 days straight... I have not been in the rumor room and I have also not heard or seen anything from my more "official" channels. Not to say it's not true- I truly don't know.

I just received confirmation that the company intends on displacing CA's. Announcement should be out this week.

There we go.. any hopes of having a NH class in the spring are gone I guess.

With these displacements I'm sure its not going to happen...maybe not even in the entire 2009 calendar year.

Anyone know how long these displacements are for? And are they on the 200's or the 900's? Which bases?

Today was just a memo telling us about the plan to displace. Should know more on Dec 31st, not sure how we can do this when they seem to be having staffing issues on the northwest side of flying!!

Can't wait for the JM's and extensions to start in March. Once again we will probably cancel 100's of flights and get fined millions, all to save a few hundred thousand. And of course it will be blamed on weather and increased pilot sick calls. Can't wait for the circus!
