Most are so that's why he probably assumed lol.

On jetcareers, someone said that all hiring is on freeze. Is there anyone in "the know" that can confirm it?

I hope to work for Eagle in the near future...so hopefully everything will be fine

Tell me about it!

I get it now. Wingtips as in what's found in the feminine aisle?

Interviews are on hold. I expect the only people working here at Eagle in the next 6 - 12 months will be the top 2,000 on the seniority list.

Quit with all the fear mongering people. For all we know they could contract out the rampers and mx, and cancel pensions and that's it. They could shut the doors at eagle. No one knows, but there is no point in spreading doom and gloom until the letters are in the mail.

Damn, you think it will be that bad?

The point is that no one knows what's gonna happen and there are loads of opinions out there. All we can do is ride it out & hope for the best but get some lube and prepare for the worst.

Contract/sabre question
 

I had a line in November that ended yesterday. For December I'm on reserve and with the carry in trip I'm below my 11 days off. Can I get a day back? If so what is the Sabre entry?

The E135 and E140 are the first on the chopping block. Assume 10 pilots per plane. I think Eagle has 70 of those aircraft so that would mean 700 pilots to be furloughed.

Most of our newly upgraded captains are going back to the right seat and most of the 2011 new hires will be on the street.

Eagle will not win any new flying contracts because we have too many people at the top of the pay scale. Can't compete with RAH and GO JET with your average crew having 12 years experience.
