A buddy of mine in the 757 was in MDW twice today. He landed right behind the ExecuJet Citation George was riding on - supposedly he was there for a big announcement. Someone in MDW MX said that they had the podium set up and everything, but at the last minute they took everything down and cancelled the press conference. Allegedly the talks relating to the 'big announcement' broke down at the last minute. The miniscule furloughs announced later this afternoon could be face saving on management's part after notifying the MEC that a furlough announcement was coming out today.NZCHooverboy said:MGMT and the MEC have been talking furlough to the amount of 80+ for several months today. Apparently we staffed for 40 737's but only received 34.
What surprised me was the small number announced today (2FO/6PFE). Why even bother?
Execujet has a Lear 35, a Bell Jetranger and a Cessna Citation 551. The Citation is cheaper to operatre and just as fast on short flights like IND to MDW.WayBack said:I thought GM cruised around in his ATA Lear25 or 35???? Why would he go get a Citation, when he already has his Lear and Helicopters?
Awww, Man. Don't go repeating rumors from Flight Attendants.jjbiv said:This rumor comes with exactly zero evidence to support it, but I just received a call at home reporting that per an ATA F/A the HP crew now is comfortably back in PHX, having "bought us" today. They supposedly returned on a flight her crashpad roomie worked. We shall see what announcements are ensuing.
