Thumbs up AWAC Hiring Spring 2010

Their site says that they are accepting Pilot resumes in 'anticipation of potential' hiring in early spring 2010.

Hang on.......have the management and the union come to an agreement on the United flying?

Or

Is this 'extra' flying on the US Airways side?

This false, and will end similar to how the TSA recalls ended.

It is going to be extra flying taken from PSA and given to AWAC because they like to start both engines for the 45 min sits.
THE MORE YOU KNOW...........

It would be if they were even paying the bill. But it is the same number of cycles if they start one then wait to start the other or if they start them both at the same time.

Cycles matter MUCH less than temperatures...

I must not be understanding your statment. How does running a turbine engine at idle create less heat than having it off all together?
