ASA cancel new hire class?

[777forever]

I was referring to the manager of flight safety, not the red porsche director of safety.

Couldn't be the manager of Flight Safety. The guy on airliners.net has to have some kind on inside position at Delta or ASA. Most of his info is pretty in depth operations info(day to day performance numbers for DCI and Delta gate parking information and most of it is correct.)

ASA is going to turn over the IAD flying to the XJT side. This is why XJT is hiring so many more than ASA. This also solves ASA's staffing issues, as 60 more Capts and FOs will be freed up. ASA (crj) will be Delta, and the ERJ's will be United.

Watch for it soon.

Also, the ASA name looks like it's going to be ExpreeJet/Jetlink.

Where do you get this info from?

 

[Cpt Oveur]

Wait and see.

I like how they find all these creative ways to fix the staffing problem without actually hiring.

 

[Cpt Oveur]

More likely they boot ASA out of ORD and keep our planes and maintenance at IAD, or the complete reciprocal: move them all to ORD and out of IAD. Contractually the flying still goes to ASA for the allotted time.

Wait and see.

Good idea. But if these cutback rumors come true or even worse, the f-word starts floating around the pilot group, I think we'll see quite a few FOs jump ship to Compass. With the retirements DAL is seeing in 2014, 2015, and 2016, an ASA FO that jumps to Compass now will be in the top 30 at Compass by 2014!

wouldnt be suprising at all. The one thing i have learned from being here is that we absolutely will NEVER keep a base outside of atlanta very long. I am not sure how every other airline does it, but for whatever reason we can't. Thats got to be pretty embarassing for the ASA managers, certainly cant blame that on the pilots.

not sure how they can furlough and hire at same time... you would have a jetlink guy junior to an ASA guy on the street..

Asa just keeps on slowly circling the bowl.
