I got the call to interview and want to know if anyone has the Sim Packet that needs to be memorized? I googled it and didnt find anything, at least not in a PDF.

Anyone in the Sacramento region that got called?

1) we are all involuntarily being sent on TDY? If so then i should be able to bid a line in SJU for the last have of the month correct?

This is legal, the company is placing your entire base in TDY status so they can do it for as long as they wish, and no you can't bid a line for the ned of the month but you can bid a line for the following month if you will continue to be TDY. Half month TDY lines are nothing new.

2) if this is TDY then I'm going to assume we get per diem the whole time correct?

It depends, if the company is going to keep you TDY the whole time then yes, but if they are going to A pass you to and form SJU for your days off then you "probably" won't get perdiem 24/7

3) is this even contractually legal? I know we're in bankruptcy but i thought a TDY had to be something we bid???

You bid for TDY, you can only be involuntary TDY twice in a calendar year, unless your whole base has been involuntary TDY in that year, MIA ATR as a whole is involuntary TDY so everyone can be involuntary TDY until you guys go to training.

4) I saw an additional email that states the LA guys who bid the ATR in Miami will not have their request honored.....sorry but it's a plane on the property so I'm not sure where the contract ( I know, there that word again) says you can just choose not to honor it.

this is the first time I hear about this, but what will happen is these guys will never go to training and will be TDY to other ERJ bases until they run another displacement bid for SJU and then these guys will be displaced once again.

Final thought; if we're bankrupt how much will 50+ hotel rooms along with 24x7 per diem cost versus sending us home until a training class is worked out?

Home based lines will save the company plenty of coin, we just have to see how it will be implemented

Can anyone shed a light on why Eagle is planning to hire 100 pilots this year and 400 next year.
