    AA to Lay Off 2,500 Pilots...... Ouch!!!

    V70T5 has posted 16 times on this thread alone. Why don't we all just let him continue this "so-called" discussion on his own. He seems to be quite good at it.

    AA to Lay Off 2,500 Pilots...... Ouch!!!

    What the heck is a "walmart minded pear" anyway? Some kind of new-fangled piece of fruit.

    UAL news....We aint dead yet.

    I'm a little skeptical. UAL lost $478 million (ebditar) in the 4th quarter. That's roughly $5.3 million a day. Now they turned that around in 1 months time with rising fuel costs and 0% hedging. The whole story's not out on this one yet.

    SWA Feb 14th Class

    I talked to Jennifer yesterday. I brought up the fact that some of my friends who had interviewed months after me had gotten classes already (they had their types before the interview). She said 1) if you have your type before the interview, they use your interview date, 2) if you don't have...

    B-737 Type for SWA

    I got my type at K&S in Aug. I would highly recommend them. Ground school was in Phoenix. Very nice hotel accomodations with a van service to/from K&S, the airport, downtown, etc. The ground instructor was excellent. Examiners were SWA capts. We requested the -300 sim at FSI in SLC for no...

    SWA Poolies..Idea?

    Jennifer just returned my call. She said they are working on filling the Jan classes right now. She said it was hard to tell but I could be March or April. If stop/loss guys get released in Jan that changes everything again. Interviewed: May 8 Typed: Aug 30

    SWA Poolies..Idea?

    My buddy's board met the end of Aug. He got the "you're swimming" call Aug 28. I did notice there are several poolies on this thread who started swimming before Aug 28. Have spife, n1atmax, shamu4me, or pilot4swa gotten a class.
