Things could end up a number of different ways. All I know is that I am usually wrong when determining the thought process at the hangar and CP4. I hope you have better intuition. Take care.
The choices are between Eagle rights and electing to flow through (not an AA #). AA #s are only given out when the company is hiring (no pilots on furlough). Ask any CA that has completed IOE on the jet since AA furloughed (9/2001) what his / her AA seniority # is. They will tell you that they...
I think you are mistaken about a few facts. No EGL CAs have been given AA #s since AA furloughed right after 9/11, so most EGL captains do not have AA #s at this time. Also with Letter 3 set to expire May 2008 I do not think any new hires or those hired in the last 5 or 6 years ,for that...
From what I hear it is no longer the intense "NASA style" medical it used to be. I think just vision, hearing, and drug testing (I do not know from first hand experience ; simply what I've heard/read).
I have the same condition. During my last eye exam the Doc informed me of new types of contact lenses specifically designed for the treatment of keratoconus. I don't know if your current contacts are the typical hard lenses, if they are talk to your corneal specialist. All the exams and...
I have just been told that I have TMJ and your symptoms certainly point in that direction. I tried to save a buck and buy an athletic mouth guard but the discomfort and pain didn't subside so I shelled out the cash for one from my dentist. I was also told to take Advil (800mg) three times a...
MCO is no big deal. Expect 18R or 36L. I've made the flight numerous times in a PA 28 and never had them ask for anything more than best forward speed. I'd suggest Galaxy as there are no fees and fuel is cheaper. You can use their crew car to pick up pax at the main terminal.
Last time I checked AE had 304 pilots on furlough. I know many will not be coming back. If the chief pilot doesnt even know how many pilots his company has on the street, I would take all his other info with a grain of salt.
Dragin,
In an earlier post you said that AMR would have to get a no-strike clause in the very slim chance they would agree to a merger of AA and AE. Why not give it to them as the US Gov't would never allow AA to strike in the first place, too much negative impact on the industry or some other...
Blue Ridger,
Try Av ED at Leesburg Airport (JYO) #703-478-1036. I know they have a sim in Tysons Corner or Vienna not more than 10 min from IAD. Good luck!
Anaconda,
The way I understand it is that the AA/TWA furloughs would be recalled and the AE pilots would be merged onto the APA seniority list (probably stapled on the bottom). Seniority would then determine the aircraft flown. So to answer your question, with my limited and possibly incorrect...

Unless I missed a post I haven't read of any AE pilots endorsing or blindly signing on to the APA proposal on this web board. You asked for the details and the few available have been provided. Give the AE pilots a little credit for having enough sense not to march ignorantly into...

I don't know more about this proposal than anybody else, but I think the future furlough protection for AE pilots would be a result of dropping the code share agreements with American Connection, the removal of the ASM cap, and projected growth with the SJ's. The proposal called for...
