Mini - there are programs that can offer short-term assistance to you if your number is called.
First thing tomorrow morning, I hit the phones.
Good luck guys.

What are you expecting them to do?What range of the seniority list need to be worried about getting that phone call (have the phone calls been made yet?)
I really hope higher time jet guys think twice before pushing newhire prop guys out of their runs and out on the street. For me, if I lose my run/job, I won't even have money for food after the next paycheck. So there goes the wife, and my life in general, down the drain. Not that easy to find a new job, with low time (<3000), on short notice, these days.
God bless

Take the number of Prop SICs subtract that number from 55 and that is the number of prop PICs that will get called. There will be some (alot) of jet guys that leave most however will be for their own reasons not to keep lower senority prop pilots employed while they themselves have to hit this lovely job market.
not sure but they were bought out a few months backWhat exactly happened here? Is Airnet moving out of the check hauling business and cutting back on their flying? Sorry, but I'm completely in the dark on this one.
They ran interviews on the same day that announced a furough of almost 1/3 of the pilot group.
From the sounds of things last night, you're right. I didn't speak with lots of people, but of the ones I did no one seems too interested in taking a step backwards (not no one, but a good majority). You'd have a better idea on this, is that the general consensus throughout the group or did I just hit an isolated group of individuals?There will be alot of people leaving. I wouldn't expect to be out of a job for long, unless you've lost hope in Airnet. I know I have.
If I miss the cut (and it's going to be f'ing close. Not just close ...f'ing close.), I probably will not come back with a recall ...unless it's a base/position I'm looking for and I'm not sure that exists anymore.I may not return if recalled.
I was one of the persons that interviewed yesterday. Two other guys and I.
They didn't say anything about this to us during the interview process, but there was a moment when they were alluding to something.
