I am with you brother. Did you ask if it was everyone not protected by the contract. I didn't think to ask how many.

They are in the process of calling 56 pilots today (everyone outside the furlough clause). ASA now will = 136 furloughed.

Well this sucks, we must be losing a ton of flying. I guess we aren't getting that rumored United flying (no surprise there)

The wait till Mesa goes bankrupt business plan has failed miserably, but at least we aren't going the RAH route and destroying the profession.

i have a horrible feeling that this is "out of the company's control" and they can furlough as many as they want. is the number 56 for sure?

I have a question, what is the last new hire class that is protected under the no furlough clause?

According to the union, it would take bankruptcy to furlough more. I think the November classes were the last covered.

I think SH said we did 47,000 hrs this month and will be reduced to 36,000 hrs in September.
