AS Recalls?

[wscrj]

They will say "If you need more time...no problem" but watch the panic set in when you actually ask for another session.

"Uh.....we don't really have room for that....umm......"

Believe it or not, it comes back pretty quick once you get in the sim....unless you were MD....but then you're a mess anyway....

 

[mazzymoon]

Sorry, just simplifying what I was saying above. I hope to get recalled soon.

Are the recalled pilots going straight to ANC to fill the vacancies when they're done with training?

You would expect something else?

 

[CGHercster]

With the bid effective date of Jan 31, I was just wondering if they would be used anywhere in the meantime.

 

[QCappy]

No. Plus they are going to probably bid advance some guys from ANC to LAX starting in December.

In training the other day Co. guy told us it is 3 -400's, not the 2 - 400's I had reported with new lease extensions. So that should help our staffing cause even more.

That very well could be, but they still have not filed any 8-K's with the SEC indicating the fleet change. Here is the last 8-K with the fleet plan info:

It still show's 3 -400's going away in 2011.

Has anyone heard any updates on the Nov class yet? Im curious how many people they will have to go through to get 24 to return.

I don't know, but they have now sent out letters for December 13th and January 3rd classes that go through #27 on the furlough list.

 

[Baze]

Cool! Thanks for the info, QCappy. It's good to see that someone finally came to their senses and decided to send out all the remaining letters pronto. I guess the trickle-in method wasn't working all that well for the 2nd floor?

What does "all the way to #27" mean? They have recalled 27 dudes or they only have 27 remaining out?

#27 from the top of the recalls. Leaving 66 out.

 

[igneousy2]

Are they bringing back 27 or are their a few mil/loas that by-passed?

Mil and LOAs

A bit off topic but now that our MEC chairman is at the national level does he stay MEC chairman or do we vote a new one in?

Hey Old school...I wish it mattered but ALPA national couldn't care less about little old Alaskan airlines. I would love to be an "in house" union.

Why would national care? Even our own MEC (S.C.) didn't care, except for his "own". Action speaks louder than words-ie. block representation screw job.
btw, welcome back to our furloughed brothers & sisters!

 

[mach none]

He has to step down 01/01/2011. The reps will appoint a new person for the vacancy. As far as block rep, get over it because it is done.

 

[Tatoosh65]

On topic.

Any word on bypass takers from the last twelve letters that went out?
