Good. Just picked up a few 150% trips for later this month. Bring on the 200%

Same crap, different summer.

I agree that this place has been absolutely criminal in how they have worked us during the last few summers.

However, what did you guys want them to do this time? Hire a bunch this spring so they were online for this summer just so that we can be overstaffed in the fall with the 14 200's leaving (or 19 as CT and SH have been saying Delta now wants by December and we are "hoping" to keep it at 14)? It's a hard thing to decide how to staff when Delta gives us the 700's and 900's BEFORE they take the 200's.

And despite what anyone wants to say, people aren't exactly getting hired out of here in the volume some want to believe they are. 10 a month is only 70 pilots by December and 14 to 19 planes is 140 - 190 less pilots required.

(CRJ side only of course).

Don't wanna completely hijack this thread.

But does anyone have a link to the original reveal of "SureJet" in A-Tech?

I was thinking the same. I personally have not met a single person that has left for a major. Actually I haven't met anyone that knows someone that has left for a major. I've talked to people that know OF people that have left. I know they are leaving but it's in much smaller numbers than people think.

With that said I do know 3 people that have quit and moved on to different careers.

Just another perspective that's all.

Or possibly not waiting at all. Seems there are a lot of lifers on the CA side.
