Not only did G7 get 700's from Comair, they got a large number of pilots (including a few chief pilots, sim instructors, etc)

Can we update pass riders information anymore through Delta? I now have a husband and stepchild. Would love to update him from companion so he doesnt have to pay the expensive fares.

Call Comair HR. The light is still on in that office and they should be able to help you.

I knew that, but I'm too old to start over at a place like that.

Any one else suffering from "I never want to fly for an airline again" syndrome? I have had an offer to have my resume walked in at a major and really I could care less. Can't get motivated.

I am enjoying being home every night and working 10hr days in construction. Comair literally has killed my ambition to fly! Everyone I know says I seem happier nowadays!

Anyone else going through this?

Best of luck to you.

Although I still don't have any employment, it is outstanding to be home every night. The wife loves it, the rabbits love it, I laugh when I see news reports of airport delays or weather problems.

I proudly tossed my "swimsuit issue" of the latest ALPA magazine in the trash on my trip back from the mailbox! The unions are a large part of keeping me from returning to the industry. I want nothing to do with it!

Hope the rest of my fellow OH'ers have found greener pastures! I have found mine and I drove a bulldozer through it!

Well, there's always SkyWest.

However, keep in mind that thousands of hours in CRJs does not automatically qualify you to fly CRJs for SkyWest...

Thanks ALPA

Really glad to see how ALPA and the DAL pilots stepped up to the plate and absorbed their fellow Comair ALPA brothers with Jobs!!!

Wait.....oh I'm sorry. I meant preferential interviews...
