I'm wondering about the total number of pilots. APC says 446 total and 278 active but only 108 on furlough, that doesn't add up.

Active does not include management, military leave, or medical leave. That is where the discrepancy probably lays.

From the May bid packs:

STL
56 CAs
51 FOs

107

RIC
23 CAs
23 FOs

46

IAD

60 CAs
57 FOs

117


Totals: 270 bidding pilots for May.


I may be wrong, but it doesn't appear as if these numbers take into account the 30 furloughs going down in May. I don't see some of the guys' names that are getting F'd on the list.

The bid-pack letter from MW states that effective May 1st, we will have 29 airplanes with 27 flying the line holding 2 spares. No plans to add to or reduce fleet further in 2009.

Cost Cutting

Administrative Assistant in STL gone 06/02/09
E.P. new IAD Flight Manager (7/1/09)
S.M. back to the line from RIC Flight Manager (7/1/09)
D.G and D.H STL Flight Managers (7/1/09)
If RIC domicile becomes "uneconomical" it will be "reevaluated"

The furloughs go into the April of 07 class, I was May, so I will be gone too. That really bites that S.M. is going out on the line and we are getting EP back in IAD. Just enough to make me glad I won't have to deal with it anymore. Best of luck to those that remain.
