The pilot at the bottom of the RDU line-holder list is an 11/2007 hire.

The pilot at the top of the LGA reserve list is an 11/2007 hire.

any new word on contracts for AWAC?

Contracts for flying for another airline?

We have a contract for flying up to 70 CRJ-200s for US Airways. That expires in less than 5 years if I'm not mistaken.

There are no other contracts with anyone else and anytime the company has submitted a bid they have lost and blamed the loss of the bid on pilot costs. This has been going on since I have been at AWAC.

There is no evidence that there will be any new contracts at Air Wisconsin.

Hit or miss really. Mine was all of a day in conjunction with having someone walk in a resume. Also I'll be the new bottom line holder in RDU come around June-ish from what I recall on the last alignment. I have been off OE for a week and hold a line in ORF come April. Best of luck to ya.

I may be wrong but didn't they help bail US Airways out and provide exit financing? I would find it hard to belive they would leave them high and dry. Also don't they have a seat on trhe board. Can someone chime in with knowledge on this?

They sold all rights to the board seat in 2007/2008. Sold the stock for 400 million plus. AWAC has no rights execpt for what is in the Jet Services Agreement with Airways. Which is confidential.

They did bail them out.. Agreed but that was 6 yrs ago too.

Yeah... because airline management have such a great track record of good moral and ethical standards.
