American Eagle Total Recall

[GFunk20]

Hot AIR News Headline: American Eagle Announces Recalls

In an AIR, Inc. conversation with Pilot Recruitment October 7, American
Eagle announced it will be recalling all furloughed pilots effective
immediately. Currently, there are 207 pilots on furlough and an
additional 100 on voluntary leave of absence.

Eagle will be holding recurrent classes every two weeks for the
recalled pilots. Total recall is anticipated by the end of December.
New hire classes are expected to start early 2004.

This is good news for the people out there on furlough and for anybody who would like a job as an FO at a regional.

However, it is becoming more and more apparent that AA flowbacks will be taking virtually all captain upgrades at Eagle (that are not displacements) for an indefinite period of time.
This, though Eagle got only 124 'flowthroughs' to AA when times were good. Time will tell but it is not looking good right now for advancement here at AE.

[mainah]

Hey, congrats on the recall guys!

 

[flightmahtman4n]

so does anyone have info on were to apply if this really happens. Do you just mail the resume in or can you fill something out online? I would also like to read about this, what is the source of this story?

 

[Bjet Driver]

CONGRATS!!!

Congrats to every Eagle pilot who will get the call soon! No matter how messed up the industry can be, it sure beats the heck out of a 9-5!

 

[T-Gates]

Never though I'd see the day people would be applying to Eagle again..... *sigh* the good ole' days.....

 

[Slave2theGrind]

Looks like NOV 3rd, its back to GSW and the infamous ATR

 

[Medeco]

is this official?

Hey,

I am just trying to find out if any furloughs have recieved this info officially?

Company letter?

Medeco

this is great news if yes.

Lots of good financial news coming out of late.

 

[Cracker]

It's good to hear about the recall. Glad to start see pilots flying again.

 

[Slave2theGrind]

YES ITS OFFICAL, THE LAST 70 LETTERS ARE GOING OUT TODAY

"just sAAy no to the flow"

 

[amcnd]

AA may only get about 160 CA postions at Eagle. AA was late in the game to send them to training. so come may will see what hapens.

 

[amcnd]

The monthly bid just came out and 18 jet CA upgrades from Eagle pilots, and also a dozen prop CA upgrades. Also 34 Prop FO to Jet FO. All of this with the AA pilots coming back.

Eagle Bases

Quick question for the Eagle fliers out there ... I'd looked at Eagle and had an invite to DFW but it got CX-ed post-9/11. Have heard rumors since of bases opening/closing and I know there have been changes to the fleet in that time. What are the current bases and which a/c are where? And where, other than SJU obviously, runs junior for FOs?

Thanks!
R

 

[SkySpray]

Russ, this should help:

SJU - ATR
MIA - ATR
BOS - ERJ
ORD - ERJ (and soon CRJ-700 too)
DFW - ERJ, CRJ-700, Saab 340
LAX - ERJ, Saab 340
LGA - ERJ

The ATR & Saab props are junior: SJU, DFW & LAX (in that order)

For the jet, ORD is typically the most junior for ERJ FO's, followed by BOS or LGA. LAX and DFW are senior, with many of the FO's being displaced prop captains. The CRJ in DFW is fairly senior.. I think FO's have at least 2.5 years with Eagle. Hope that helps.

 

[FEDUPPILOT]

CRJ DFW went SUPER junior on this last bid. A few guys from the Feb 19 2001 held it.

 

[SkySpray]

Yes, but it's a sad state of affairs when someone with 2.5+ years of seniority is considered "super junior" because they can hold CRJ F/O. Most other regionals will put new-hires right into the same jet.

 

[WhiteCloud]

Yes, but it's a sad state of affairs when someone with 2.5+ years of seniority is considered "super junior" because they can hold CRJ F/O. Most other regionals will put new-hires right into the same jet.

If the upgrade takes too long and hiring resumes elsewhere (as it seems to be) Eagle will be a revolving FO door. Go there, fly for a while and move on to better opportunities.

 

[Slim]

Does anyone have a feel for how many furloughed AE pilots are returning to AE. I have flow with several former Eagle pilots and none have indicated any willingness to return to AE.

 

[vclean]

Less than 1/2 have accepted recall. About 12 resigned, 50 bypassed.
