If the union rolls over on this I'm going to be royally pissed off.

Incompetence or malice, it doesn't matter to me.

Well, they filed a grievance. That'll show 'em.

Company has stolen nearly $600,000 from pilots this year alone by overcharging for insurance premiums.

And...you should run the numbers...considering how slow the grievance process is (not blaming our Agreement Compliance folks, just the overall process) on the cost that will continue to be taken from those who have Company offered insurance.

You think they'll quickly settle this one? The incompetance level at A-Tech couldn't figure out how to get out of this jam quick enough.

As much as I wish I was back flying, sometimes I think it is best to watch this mess unfold from afar.

Antonov AN 2

The biggest biplane in the world.

An 2's have special place in my heart, my first airplane ride was in the back of one.

I know - I was asking if it was specifically the CAF's AN-2.

Honestly, no idea. I just like this pic a lot.

9/23 classes will be CRJ and ERJ. Placed in respective aircraft from day 1... No joint Indoc in IAH.

So where are they going?

Interesting that we're supposedly losing 19 airplanes by the end of the year (only 3 months away) yet we continue to run classes on the CRJ side during the slowest time of the year. Our attrition isn't that high and FTDT isn't going to be that big of an effect......Something is going on.

Don't get too optimistic now.

How do you know that FTDT won't have that big of an effect? Our company put the increase in staffing right around 10%.

I think the majority of hiring is on the ERJ side, which was understaffed before hiring began at mainline, and now that side is bleeding pilots.

I wouldn't exactly call losing 100 pilots in 8 months (based on most recent data) "bleeding"

147, and 36 in the last month.

Still progress. But hardly bleeding.

I was 3 from the bottom in our class at #2800 when we started, now I'm at 2769, with exactly 31 people in the class behind me. Seems like we're just barely covering attrition.

Indoc in ATL for the CRJ. This could all change overnight again, like it did this week. My buddy was given an option for ERJ or CRJ prior to going to class, then told he didn't have a choice and CRJ it was.
