    So What Is It USAir East Wants?

    In 15 years 50% of the USAir (East) seniority list will have retired. So a 10-15 year fence would protect career expectations on both sides. Just my opinion though, I have no intention of accepting recall.

    Wal Mart looking for pilots

    Let's clarify here. Wal-Mart same store sales fell 3.5% compared with April a year ago. Same store sales measure the performance of stores that have been open for at least 12 months. That does NOT mean that those stores were not profitable. By the way, Target, Wal-Mart's biggest rival, reported...

    USAirways (East) pilots prepare for all out war...

    I can't believe what a bunch of sophomoric children you're being on both sides of the Mississippi. When you go out of business as a result of labor discord than you can all look for jobs together, and all start at the bottom of some other seniority list together - furloughees and non-furloughees...

    USAirways East losing respect.

    "It's not the seniority placement that bugs me, it's the lack of fences and the way that Age 65 legislation immediately negates them." I'll add my vote to that. I'd be disappointed in the integration either way, but the lack of fences directly impacts career expectations and provides a windfall...

    Awa/usairs Arbitration In !

    I was hired Jan 99'. I remember those first couple of trips. Every monday morning a new class would start and I would think to myself, "You just won the lottery...again." It truly is heartbreaking. My father was hired by US Airways (then Mohawk) in 1968 and it had always been my dream to follow...

    Awa/usairs Arbitration In !

    I just heard that someone on the East scheduling committee just resigned his ALPA position. Something like, "ALPA didn't do anything for me, why should I continue to volunteer my time for them?" My wife is in CLT trying to nonrev home. She was trying to get to New England today. Her flight to...

    Awa/usairs Arbitration In !

    Absolutely remarkable. I admit that I expected the post 1999 hires to be stapled. (Although I could have argued that those hired by AWA after the merger announcement should have been placed below the furloughees -- they knew what they were getting into.) But I am mystified as to why those hired...

    PRIA check question, Help!!

    I went to a commuter in the NE after getting furloughed by a major. The third day of ground-school they DO came in and started talking about a training contract. I resigned on the spot. Never listed them on anything.

    You pro hat guys aren't going to like this one....

    For me, it isn't about wearing the hat. It's about following the SOP -- even those sections that you don't agree with.

    USAirways to place large a/c order

    Rayford...quit channeling Steven Wolf! (PS. Rakesh should have translated - "We will darken the skies with RJs...")

    Looking at going corporate!

    "You probably won't leave an airline to a cushy fortune 25 flight department" A lot of people have. Right place, right time, know the right people, and a little luck doesn't hurt either.

    USAirways / America West call from Pilot Recruitment

    mk82 said, "...as the company works the way down and then again back up the list" Just so we all understand precisely how this works -- EVERY bid starts from the top of the furlough list. They call the most senior pilot on furlough and work down to the most junior. As long as someone junior to...
