Another Big Retirement Day at AA 10/1

Looking like between 100-150. And what does AA do? Shrink the schedule another 4% due to pilot shortages. Recalls have been REDUCED now down to 25/month due to the schoolhouse being maxed out with training cycles from the retirements. This place never ceases to amaze me...

Doesn't surprise me.

Different subject--word is that Bates stated in Miami that length of service for furloughees isn't even on the table. So much for "it's always been done."

Yes. According to 73, they've always been made whole on ensuing contracts. Not this time. I wonder why.....

The '93 furloughs were made whole after the Reno acquisition through the TA. I've sent a soundoff and this will be one more reason to vote No if LOS is not included. Unreal...
