So your going to willingly pick up OT with people on the street?

No....I'm hoping to see flying stay in open time and not get picked up by FOs who put a few dollars above the welfare of coworkers

There was a light at the end of the tunnel, but it burned out. Now, someone needs to crawl their butt down the long dark tunnel, and FIX IT!

You'll have to call MTX for that. And it will have to be replaced with an FAA certified bulb.

Furloughs by status

Here are the numbers by bid status FYI:

JFE - 25
NFE - 15
OFE - 10
OFC - 10
DFA - 4
SFA - 5
MFA - 6

I went by the next effective status as of May 1 or later if that pilot was scheduled to be in training after the effective date of the furloughs. Best of luck to all my Eagle brothers. I will pass along any job openings I hear of. Hope to have everyone back soon!

Okay, it's been a long day of flying but I'm not sure there are enough numbers there.
