Attrition at ASA?

[Oakum_Boy]

You are a F***en retard. NO CHECK AIRMEN GETS ANY PRESSURE TO "PUSH THEM THROUGH". PERIOD.

Not direct pressure, anyway. Let's be realistic and true to thine own.

All the check airmen do is conduct IOE until the pilot is ready to be signed-off or mgmt says enough and lets them go. I don't know about the training dept, but in FS there has been NO pressure on check airmen to complete IOE on a pilot that was not ready. However, the experience level of new-hires does create a need for more IOE before the average pilot is ready to be signed-off.

Uh, you might want to educate yourself. HR does the hiring, crew planning builds your pairs/lines.

No shlt, but who tells HR how many pilots are needed and where?

How about the VP of Flt Ops.

More Like the manager of crew planning.

Nope, try again. Next!

Nah, they just keep hiring until they have too many. Then, it's time to start firing.

Hire 'til you furlough. Furlough 'til you hire.

I talked to Brian Morris today, and he told me the training department is "catching up". He said the ATR people holding a jet award may go sooner rather then later after all.

I reminded him that if he backs up the pipeline with ATR captains, he can't send anybody from a later award through until those from the earlier award go (no bypass for captains), effectively stopping jet FOs upgrading to captain until they go. FOs, however, may be bypassed by new hires.

Totally off the subject John, but I have to compliment you on your choice of candidate, you've finally come around! Anyone who can unite 2 disparate souls like you and Mr. Merchant would surely have no trouble with problems as trivial as radical Islam and nuclear proliferation.

I received a PM about FOs and I wanted to clarify. BM was talking about Captains going sooner. FOs will still go over to the jet 2 at a time because giving all 12 the award backed it up. And it's much easier to bypass FOs with new hires. If a Captain is bypassed, no later awards can go to training until he goes.
