I believe when the first wave of furloughs came around June '08 the sen. # was up to about 560 I was furloughed Aug '08 and I was in the upper 400s number 4 from the bottom if I remember correctly.

I wouldn't hold your breath mate, you might suffocate. Trans States is a thing of the past for me. Don't get me wrong though, if Trans States decides to get its stuff together and I'm still on the street, I'll come back. Chances of that scenario playing out: Slim to none.

According to the latest bid packet, the most junior guy on property is #309. Last year there were almost 550 pilots on property.

No kidding. It would be nice to get rid of one of the worst "management" teams in the industry.

I have not heard anything about 5 returning aircraft from Mexico but I will ask around.
