Maybe what lazyb is trying to say is: several pilots who were pushed out of their dream job at age sixty are up next for recall? There is a significant number of retired major pilots in the 495. There were several in my class and they were a great addition to the company. Fact is they are now 66+, are they interested in returning? Maybe long enough to get vested then bail?
I don't think anybody is suggesting there is a desire among the major airline ranks to be a nj pilot. That would be a silly assertion.

Doesn't sound fair to me if true given all the more senior FOs waiting on the Encore, Beechjet or Phenom for some more leg room...

If that's the type they want people get currency on before they bail to the airlines ... More power to them
Maybe they need money

HEY UNION, HOW BOUT SOME INFO?
I know of retired guys from AA, Delta, United, SWA and Alaska who were in initial ground or sim training with me in early 2007. There may be more than the five I know about. One of the guys took the early retirement offer when the furlough was announced. I intend to come back. I don't know the intentions of the other guys but all are among the next 20-25 on the list.
Thanks, Pops, but I are stupid.
I am Rahm Emanuels love monkey. We're gonna need a sh1tload of dimes.
It surprises me that as inept as everyone in this thread thinks every single employee is at Bridgeway, that you stick around. Add to that your horrid benefits, pay, and poor scheduling. It seems everyone here thinks that those at the mothership are out to get all the pilots. Sure there are the select few who may be under par, but before you point fingers, you must realize there are some of those among your ranks too. Come sit with us for day and watch the three dimensional chess game we play every single day and maybe you'll see that most of us are actually here to support you. Sure, your particular issue at any particular time may not get handled the most efficient way, but understand the person taking care of your problem likely has 2 dozen other things going on at the same exact time. I cannot speak for senior management or even begin to think what their goals are, but those of us on the phones and sitting behind Ijet are trying to work with you. We know you're tired, a lot is asked of you, and that many of your peers are still on furlough. We lost 300 people that year too. We appreciate what you all do, yet I see us get bashed here repeatedly on this board.
Go ahead and beat me up on this post...I'm thick skinned. But if things are so bad, why do you stay?
SG
I'm looking forward to the day some of these whiners do leave!!
BTW, great post!!
