That's awesome news, friend just called me with the info. Seems odd though since TSA was over 50 A/C prior to the furloughs, so if everyone is coming back, there'd have to be something big GUARANTEED to be happening...God knows F.O. wouldn't bother bringing people back on property for a "rumor" or just because he felt bad to have guys on the street in this bad economy.

If it's certified mail, give it time. It is the US Mail...

Of course the month I get furloughed from the airline that made me give up my # at TSA, they start recalling at TSA.

Makes me sort of wish I'd kept my name on their list (I chose to cut my losses to pursue other avenues). It'd be tough not to accept the recall in tough times like this. On the other hand, would I really want to go back to TSA? It'd be one hell of a culture shock after living at home again (I commuted before) for a year in my own bed every night. Faced with the decision, it'd be a tough decision to make either way. Not sure how I feel right now, regretful or happy that I am free of the whole mess. 50/50 maybe. Its just illustrative how much of a hold this industry can get on one who loves flying. It truly is a love/hate relationship if I ever did see one. Its part of the reason these internet boards are as "lively" as they are. A lot of passionate, yet "****ed off" folks on here.

For those who view this as good news, I am honestly happy for you all. The dice came up a winner this time.

Since we've established that no "new" flying is happening out there, who is getting the short end of the stick? Are more pilots going to get furloughed from whomever is losing the flying?

I don't see why they would recall with no new airplanes or flying.

Wasn't at Mesaba was it? I really think that process needs a court challenge... seems to me like you give up your previous number under duress... One buddy already missed his recall at Air Wisky and I will likely miss mine.

You might talk to the MEC at TSA and see if there's anyway to get back on the list if even at the bottom. I've heard rumors of such things happening. Good luck

I'm pretty certain I won't go back. I really really really miss flying the jet, but I would rather be home with my wife every night. I have a much better QOL as flight instructor. I can't justify the pay or working conditions there. Feds all over the place. All planes having at least 3 items deferred. Not for me. No thanks.
