Block building and PBS
Hi sinkrate. Great response. Better than anything our PBS committee can tell us. We've been asking for the straight goods to deflect the blame from them but nothing like the substance you've provided. It sounds like it's unrealistic mgmt constraints. We have a step by step solutions... -

Block building and PBS
We finally got out blocks. Took 6 days of a continuous run. They had to open up our hard 16 day max to 17 and our designated block hrs to -9 to +1. These are big hour swings. Now we have 270 blocks to run and our smaller bases have no problems. Just YYZ 320 FO. PBS gives you a lot of... -

AdOpt is the vendor. They are using their servers to run our bid because I guess we have reached the limitations of the program. Priority bid system would be much easier. -

Block building and PBS
I'd like to get some input on how other airlines with (200+ pilots per equip seat) are able to get their block built and issued in a timely manner. The reason.... Here at Air Canada we use PBS. Our largest equipment base is the YYZ 320 (270+ per seat). Our July blocks have yet to be... -

US Airways Hiring?
OMFG he was joking. Ya think he's going to criticize posters grammar and spelling and then do the same. Perhaps it's lost on you...thread drift. -

Its now official - Dept of HS is now a laughing stock
They screw up, we pay the price - travelers, crews, and airlines. Kelly McParland: Thanks mad bomber. Thanks a lot. Posted: December 28, 2009, 9:23 AM by NP... -

Guess where TSA will be looking next!!!
Do you work for Homeland Security because that policy sounds like a nonsensical dribble that they would come up with up, except for the profiling part. According to your logic foreign based airlines that fly into the US (if memory serves me right there are a few...) can fly in with these yahoos... -

How many furloughs/losses by fall?
Chill dude. Just take a deep breath and relax. I thought it was funny. Regardless MESA and all it's subsideries have always been the whipping boy of aviation. -

Delta reports $6.4 BILLION loss for 1st qtr.
Just lurking here but the BIG questions REMAINS.......when the stock goes back up $16/share do you get to report a $6 Billion gain. I honestly don't know. I should have been an accountant because apprently a rainy day can be sunny! -

Arbitrator Rules Furloughed US Airways Pilots Will Lose Seniority
Orginal Air Canada mid to low seniority pilots got absolutely screwed in the merger with Canadian. Many literally lost hundreds of thousands in potential earnings as CA upgrades disappeared and some bumped of aircraft. This is not going to be pretty.... -

Independence Air Recall Alert!!!
How in the he!! are you going to move up the seniority list. They're recalling 25 guys for now. Chances are 100% that the recalled guys will be THE BOTTOM 25 on the list - guranteed reserve and no life. Sure you may move up to the covented 5 from the bottom if more guys pass but who cares... -

AC to start YYZ to PHX in July w/705's
Yep, the 705 is a 900 with less seats (70) so pax comfort will be a bit better. It will be operated by Jazz, their regional. But this is definitely short term - it's summer, eveyone is golfing up in Canada, wait until the cold weather comes and everyone bails out - then you'll see the Airbus... -

DL warns on losses and liquidity
When your in dire straits you're not in a position to control negotiation, isn't that obvious. Getting a billion eh! How many buyers of your regionals are there?????? One potential buyer and the sellers close to bankrupcy.....I smell a fire sale. -

A Canadian Airline pulls the plug.
Their pilots put down $30,000!!!! to get the job. It was a training bond payable over 2 years - most of the pilots, who will get nothing back, only made $35,000 their first year. A lesson to paying upfront in this environment. Pay for your job, get paid peanuts, lose your job and your... -

FLYI Restructures
What are your sources. According to my calculations the current furlough list reflects this number of CRJs. -
