Can anyone at RAH confirm the following:

- Loosing around 60-80 pilots a month.
- No min day guarantee for line holders.
- No cancellation pay.

Thanks.

How long would it take to hold ORD at S5, and how long roughly to hold a line there?

Most jr FO in base looks to be a 4/2014 hire. Most jr line holder is about 10/2013.

It's closer to 30-40 and the rest is correct

from the union: since June 2014: 190 hired 250 quit = -60 net loss and majority of those are FO's leaving...

That's actually pretty impressive. With places like PSA and TSA I am amazed that you guys have hired that many and only lost those numbers.

More would leave if they weren't commited w/ the training contract.

Hold on a second; didn't you already tell them to pound sand after a couple of days in training? If you're asking for a friend, I sure hope you've warned him or her.

Anyway, to answer your question, boiler above is correct, but that time can very wildly, and getting a line may take a bit because of a lot of CHQ/Q400 transfers yet to happen.

Bear in mind, this is as it sits...there are so many things in progress at RAH that it might change completely....there's even a good chance that S5 ORD may not exist in 12 months.

Actually, it's more junior than that. You must be looking at the monthly bid awards. If you look at the base-bidding side of Flica, there are guys still in the schoolhouse that are holding S5 and YX ORD.

YX ORD, junior FO is 11/10/2014 and the most junior line holder is 4/2014 hire. S5 ORD junior FO 11/10/2014.

Republic is what you make of it. If you live in or close to a non-outstation base it's doable. That being said, like most regionals, this place is run by morons.
