Post-SLI recall acceptance estimates.

Some say all will take recall, others say 1/2-1/3. Anyone with any rumored figures?

My money is on 65%-70% or around 950 pilots. We are already near 500 on the bottom of L-CAL.

We have 650 at CAL? I need to check staffing for myself. I stand corrected if I was way off.

There were 1436 furloughed United pilots, we lost one. We now have just over 400 at CAL. My guess is that about half will end up returning so that means another 350 or so coming back over the next seven years or so. Just a guess.

sorry, just checked my list and shows 384 plus several classes since I got this list, estimate of around 450 now. I exaggerated the numbers a bit.

I heard CV is running out of furloughed pilots and is offering classes to new hires in February and March, interviews for new off the street in March.

IAH chief pilot said last week 500+ are either here or scheduled for a class. He said 911 still eligible for coming over.

February classes only looked about 2/3 full last week. I saw the class lists personally.

I wonder if the numbers espoused by the IAH CP accounts for those who walked out the door for various reasons. Some are only eligible for recall as they've already played the L-CAL newhire card.
