Recalls at RAH
 

It's official. According to the company and the union, 96 of our 104 still furloughed will be recalled starting the end of Dec. We all know some will not return so maybe hiring on the horizon?

Maybe time to HIRE some of those Midwest guys huh.
NEXT congrats to those who are getting their job back. Furlough sucks.

Lol. More will return than you think. I know of a couple 600 hour guys that have not worked ANYWHERE flying or not since being furloughed. The two that I know have been living off of Mommy and Daddy waiting to go back and be rich airline pilots.

Bud, I'm not here to start a flamefest, and you shouldn't be either. Your company (not you or the pilot group personally) literally put an entire airline full of pilots out of a job, many of which who had 25+ years there and you're stoked because you might be hiring? :( You have to understand that this doesn't sit well with people. I understand you weren't rooting for MidWest's demise but a little sensitivity would go a long way from many of the Republic pilots.

Excellent post. Any news on recalls for former YX or F9 pilots?

This is GREAT NEWS!!!!!! Republic might be hiring into the lowest-paying seat ever in the history of 100 seat aircraft. What's a new hire first-officer start off at over there? $23/hour? What's max pay? $37/hour? I'm not even going to look at captain's rates since the upgrade is probably 10 years for a new hire now. The post above about sensitivity is right. Your furloughed guys have less than a few months put in with the company.

Thank you.

And thank you.

I knew there were people out there somewhere that still get it. :) It's a happier day in the unemployment line now. Thank god I'm not making LESS than my unemployment check to fly 100 people around, in place of a Midwest guy/gal. That is all.
