ASA cancel new hire class?

[ace6453]

Heard the rumor around the lounge that ASA has cancelled or postponed a new hire class. Anyone confirm this?

 

[cbrown1]

Maybe they got schedules for fall and they don't look good? Delta is known to slash flights for the fall heavily and with oil as high as it is.

 

[Flyguy1226]

Not true. Class of 12 just started yesterday, and that was the last scheduled class as of now. No further classes scheduled at this time.

We had a class confirmed for May on the ASA side, did it just get canceled?

Wait for it......
" 30 June, 2011. Dear ASA Pilots. We are thankful for all the work you've been doing and sacrifices you've been making to keep this operation going under these challenging circumstances. It has just become apparent to us that we may be under-staffed, and are considering hiring some more pilots. They may be online in Jan 2012. We do not know how this situation arose, and it caught us completely by surprise. However, TFAYD. Charlie"

It's coming. Just a matter of time.

I believe the line they usually use after screwing us for any lengthy period of timeis : "We were caught off guard by our current staffing situation"..

Carry on.

Sir it is very d0uche bagish to finish with "Carry on"; we are not in the military; it sounds also like you are trying too hard to show your authority. I thought i'd mention it to you so do not live confused anymore.

Thaaaaaanks!

There is a XJT class scheduled on the 25th and thats the last one for now. They are hiring into a pool for the XJT class.

Regardless of my impromptu use of "Carry on," it still appears to stand that ASA wouldn't know "proper staffing" if it jumped up and skullf****d them.

I've heard that Delta has had it with the red headed stepchild that is ASA. Oh well. We tried

Is this from that airliners.net thread that was started by the Manager of Safety here at ASA?

So, what does that mean? I doubt delta would just dump asa outright.

 

[Metro752]

Hulas!??

There is no manager of safety. There's a director of corporate safety, security, and compliance. There are managers of maintenance safety, ground safety, flight safety, security, etc.

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