The NetJets union is doing a deal with the company to terminate large groups of the furloughed pilots at once, totally out of agreement with the contract. The contract says that when recalls happen, when they get to the bottom of the list, the most junior pilot on furlough has to accept recall...
I interviewed there last week, got a rejection email yesterday. Furloughed NetJets, ex-Chautauqua. 4800tt 3600me. The people were nice, interview was short simple and easy, about 15 minutes. They asked if I would resign my seniority number at NetJets if offered the position. I politely said no...
Does anyone have the URL to the guy's webpage that is in ERfly's avatar? I lost track of it but I'd like to show a friend. If if is the one I'm thinking of, there was a password protected section that was called "women I've dated around the world" that was pretty hilarious.
Yeah, this definitely sucks. I missed the cutoff by 50 numbers and don't expect to return to work for 2-2.5 years. By that time, I think the airlines will be starting steady hiring activities...so what to do?
Try to go to anywhere that I can get some turbine PIC to better my chances of getting...
As much as I try to be an optimist, I don't trust any HR/CP related function at my company. I have heard of the handshake deals to throw away resignations that were forced at other companies, but I just can't afford to take the chance, especially with that flow through possibly turning into a...
I may be getting furloughed at the current job here in a few months. I've been looking around and have thought about sending an app to Compass. The only hangup I have, is that on the online app, there is a question asking "If hired at Compass...you will have to resign any seniority at another...
Well, you're right about part of that. I am in my 20s and single. The advantage of taking the 3 year LOA they're offering is that you lock in $1,000 a month and free health insurance for 3 years, and even if your number comes up for furlough, you keep that. If I stay and gamble on not getting...
Does anyone know if Compass is particular about whether or not an applicant has recall rights or is on a LOA from another carrier? I work at NetJets and we may be furloughing if enough guys don't do the early retirement. One of the options is taking a 3 year LOA where they pay you $1,000 a month...
I own two LuggageWorks suitcases, the 22" and 26". I have had them for years and they have held up well. I recently purchased a LuggageWorks "stealth duffle." When this arrived, the first thing I noticed was an overwhelming disgusting chemical factory smell. Then, I noticed the fabric didn't...
Damn, this reminds me of the classic "LAV 2 OVHT" flight attendant prank. You know, the one where you call the FA and say you've got a warning message and you may have to have her help out in a few minutes....then call back in a few minutes and tell her you are getting a LAV 2 OVHT warning, and...
I don't know if this is normal or not. I'm around 2500 on the list, and a FO in the G-200 fleet. I'd say I'm probably around midway or a bit lower in FO seniority for that plane. Last schedule bid award, there were 7 guys senior to me awarded the 18 day (I bid for it continuously for the money.)...
I don't know why the company would be telling guys they can get a G-200 spot as a new hire. That never made sense to me. I am around 2500 on the list, and as of a few days ago on crewops, I saw 20 people senior to me had a G-200 FO bid in. Basically, per the contract, any vacancies must be...
From reading all the letters on the SEC website, I conclude that basically CAL intends to pull 51 a/c from XJT's flying in June. Then, they intend to not renew their contract by December, which will lead to the flying progressively going away by the end of 2012.
I thought for a second that...
