Make the airline use its "excess staffing", don't offer what is essentially open-time to pilots who willl be villified (and rightly so) if they take it.

With two planes and two bases, there will be some shuffling as CVG CAs bid JFK CA rather than CVG FO, etc. When it is all figured out they will be fat 172 FOs (the original 86 + the 86 new downgrades). Then they'll take one last glance at staffing and announce who gets F'ed.
Or that's how I think it works.
That, plus Comair's spokeswoman saying 150 pilot furloughs in addition to the current 330 FO and FA furloughs.

Call in sick...make them staff the airline properly. We have guys on furlough and more to come so there is no excuse to not allow a trip drop. If you were to become sick on that day then they will need to locate a reserve to pick up. That
is what reserves are for. IMO.

problem is i already talked to the chiefs about personal time for it.

After going back over the latest article about Delta/Comair and CVG I noticed that it says they will be restructuring what happens at CVG to make it more profitable and that it will be labor intensive. Anyone think that Comair will lose more flying to another regional out of CVG?

86 downgrades doesn't necessarily mean another 86 furloughs; it probably means more. As someone pointed out about 200 pages ago, when the company is heavy by 86 crews, they send 86 Captains back to the right seat, creating a surplus.

The notice however specifies "Note that positions by category assumes a projected 86 furloughs". Can be found in the center of the page under the boxes that show current/projected staffing for each a/c and seat. Easy to miss, I didn't see it until someone pointed it out to me. Perhaps it will be more when all is said and done.

Fellow Comair Pilots,
Today many of you received notices from Comair regarding your outstanding uniform balance. The company is stating it must be paid by January 10, 2009.
Though no surprise to many of you I am sure this is once again a contract violation and a contradiction of what the company originally agreed to. I have contacted the company and will pass along information as soon as it becomes available
What a lousy company.
I am keeping a copy of every email/letter sent from the company/union. I suggest others out there do the same.
I have this letter, from the chiefs stating otherwise. They will likely drop the pass bene's next.
