    UAL T/A and staple of UAL guys?

    I'm not going to try to explain it, but this is not correct. The contract has nothing to do with SLI. It is likely that both UAL/CAL furloughed pilots will be stapled to the bottom of active pilots, but it has not been decided on how the furloughed pilots will be put together on one list. I...

    CAL/UAL Base question

    I had recurrent last week too and the CP speaking to our GSR class said hiring after this summer is over. Said they have offered 1183 UA recalls out of 1435 to fill the vacancies off last bid. After they go through entire list they hire off the street. That being said, the CP's info isn't...

    UAL air-to-air rant

    Luckytohaveajob you sound desperate for a contract regardless to how good or bad it is. You need to relax and let the process take place.

    CAL Bid

    My guess is it will get to about #25. I am # 19 and I will be bypassing. I have another flying job that I can't give up with all the uncertainty.

    CAL Furloughees

    I'm not trying to be negative, but I am not buying recalls on the August bid. If they don't need to recall us for the summer, they aren't going to need us before next summer either. Yes, I know that we are taking delivery of alot of aircraft, but they will find a way to run the airline as...

    Airline pilot hiring

    I can't stand idiots that have this kind of attitude. Being furloughed right now in this economy is a bad place to be. I very seriously doubt that this person is sitting around waiting for unemployment to end to start looking for a job. Give me a break!!!

    Smisek on the jumpseat

    No problem. You asked some really good questions, I just would have liked to see what he might have said. Thanks for your post.

    Smisek on the jumpseat

    No questions about when they may recall the furloughed pilots and staff the airline correctly? I wouldn't have believed his answer, but I sure would have been interested in what his answer might have been!

    ATL commuter parking

    Try the Embassy Suite near the airport. I use to park there for $50 a month. The shuttle is good to the airport, but you have to get on them to come get you if it is an off time for picking up customers. The shuttle runs every 20 min.

    AME in Peachtree City

    Dr. Martha Schuh at 770-461-3776. She is in Fayetteville. She takes a long time, but is easy to get an appointment.

    Age 65 and the "F" word.

    Base on age 60 retirements the airline was hiring to replace those pilots. When the rules of the game changed and the retirement age went to age 65 there was no longer a need to have the new hire pilots. Therefore, 147 of us got furloughed. As for why 147, your guess is as good as mine.

    Age 65 and the "F" word.

    So if there has been 147 people furloughed at CAL and there are over 300 pilots over the age of 60 ,...well you do the math! Your next point is?

    Age 65 and the "F" word.

    I would love to see how many of the gummers would be whinning if they reversed the age 65 rule tomorrow and they were forced to retire immediately. Ok, this isn't going to happen, but I don't see much difference in this senerio and the age 65 change and how it was implemented. I understand...

    Age 65 and the "F" word.

    That is why I said IN MOST CASES! Look at the other majors who have furloughed. You will find age 65 is the reason. United, mabye not so simple. :-)

    Age 65 and the "F" word.

    Do the simple math. Furloughs, in most cases, since Dec 2007 is a direct result of age 65!

    Age 65 and the "F" word.

    I blame the U.S. Goverment for not implementing the age 65 change in a more responsible way. I made my career decisions with one set of rules and 3 days after I started class at CAL the rules changed! I would not be furloughed if the retirement age was still 60 or if the rule would have been...

    CAL and GATT rate change

    I have yet to see CALALPA stop anything that management trys to do. CAL furloughed pilots will only return when a new contract is signed. If there were to be a merger, furloughed pilots would likely never return. This has become my reality!

    CAL buyouts

    Management has not put a number out, but my guess is between 300-400 pilots. I am near the bottom and hope this ERW will keep me from being on the street, but I doubt it will. At least they are trying to do something to minimize furloughs.

    CAL short stack

    I also had my resume walked into a C.P. 3 times over a 3 month period and didn't get the interview. I went to a Air Inc. job fair and 2 weeks later got the interview. Start class in a week. Good luck! The job fair seemed to work for me.
