What's new at TSA?
 

Nobody seems to talk about tranny anymore? Whats new there? You guys striking, getting a contract, acquisition of the Compass certificate...

Only rumor I've heard lately is that they want to furlough another ten because we're so overstaffed...

More furloughs there...........10? What the hell for? Who furloughs 10 pilots?

so yeah...they can afford Compass but God forbid they keep 10 lil FO's.

Whats going on with Waterskiers getting pref interviews at Compass? Seem's to me that should have been sorted out by now

I did hear from the training center that recalls are scheduled for january. And the furlough rumor is just that, a rumor. 851 went back, but did not have some heavy checks done, so it is back, and being heavy checked in STL. 852 is goin got be similar.

A Compass pilot on another thread said there are quite a few Furloughed TSA at Compass already..... So I guess that's that.

yeah it would be interesting to see how many would accept recall.

Haha probably 0 if they already have a flying job other than instructing, unless of course we get something big with these negotiations. Things probably couldn't be worse at Transtates , I wouldn't be surprised if even the active TSA are trying to get in on the next Compass hiring wave.

Well i know atleast 20 or so of those furloughs would take it, most of them that I know are day managers of a home depot or similar at the present time.

Damn, they would take that sort of pay cut?! If I were them, I'd stick it out at Home Depot before heading back to a regional. I'm not being sarcastic, but you'd have to be insane to leave a management position at Home Depot to sling gear on an RJ.
