More Eagle Furloughs

[Soul Brotha']

50 more guys on April 5th.

No, no, no no.

 

[Maurus]

Uh...there goes my job. Well it was fun while it lasted. Back to unemployment.

Rebound and toss out new resumes immediately to Skywest, XJT and such. It will suck having to go to a full blown training event again, but now that you have passed your 121 training another regional would be glad to pick you up. It could be worse where you have something like 2+years under your belt and have to start from the bottom again.

Good luck...so say we all.

Darn! Sorry man, I really took encouragement from you post the other day, seemed like you were loving it! Best of luck to you.

Some new info, only a few are hitting the street April 5th.

 

[B767]

Sorry man...are you one of the 50?

Like I said, this could all be very temporary. Back in 09 we furloughed 71 guys only to recall all of them six months later.

Again, the company should have offered LOAs from the top down but that would have made too much sense.

Yes...LOAs would have made sense, financially. They also would have made sense since it's in the CBA. The wonders our MEC is doing now though, I'm not surprised. They don't care, as long as they fulfill their agenda. Oh wait, this is the wrong forum to be posting anti-EAGALPA opinions on. Need someone to see this and print it off in color so I can be thrown under the bus .

Check your PMs. There is nobody getting thrown under the bus.

What a crap sandwich this is. I am really sorry for the members here, that this affects and for all the others pilots as well. Really sad. Don't let the dust settle, get out and hustle out those apps. Network and start looking asap, don't wait around hoping. I wish all of you the very best of luck. This is just lousy.

[Autothrust Blue]

There's a proposed letter regarding long term LOA, now. Which is good. Up for MEC vote soon.
