CAL to Reduce Captain Slots, furlough?

[tie1on]

word around campus is that 90 % of the gummers are staying. a reduction bid is coming.. a loss of 120 captains. who knows how many f/o's. selling aircraft and getting new ng's..


who is running this place. they can't cover trips now. wait till summer. I hope you are not junior

Not to disagree, but...

After walking a friends stuff in, have heard that the revised/reduced hiring numbers that came out last month are still good and may actually rise again.

Also, still believe we will have a net increase of aircraft this year. Word is still out on a few extra triples too, not to mention the NG's.

Also believe that a few people may be going on mil leave this year (not me...lol) and acouple are moving on to other things.

Reduction (Flush) bid rumor I've heard, based on 65. But I will bet money that it doesn't effect us too much. Yeah, some will not get their Captain training class maybe, and I expect to be on reserve for a longer period, but I am NOT worried about the "F" word!

Just me..

Quit telling lies! 100% are staying! :crying: A 120 CA reduction does not mean anyone gets bumped. Only half of the last bid is completed. Still hiring 250+ After age 65 and previous reduction in growth. Net gain of 19 aircraft as per current plan for this year.

Change your thread title, then get a clue.

So that's supposed to be funny? People like you are the reason FI is becoming worse than worthless. Thank goodness for the ignore function.

Worthless....

It appears that this site is just worthless enough for you to be here. Maybe you can't stand the fact that some people are not nice, that others are ill-informed, and still others-like myself-are total bastards..... Whatever.

I'll bet there are sites around that could not possibly offend or insult your fragile sensibilities. May I suggest you do a search for "Sesame Street" perhaps "the Wiggles" or maybe even the "Care Bears." I'll bet those sites have servers with just enough bandwidth to handle your traffic. It would be a win-win for all....You wouldn't get all offended by the fact that there are mean people in the world, we wouldn't have to listen to your pansy whining any more.

OK...stand by for a caustic response to this post-- from the same guy--only logged on as 737Pylt or General Lee...they are all the same guy.

"Gummers" is good.

I still like the name "herpes".

1) No furloughs
2) No captain slot reductions if 777s get negotiated. If not, there will be 30-50 capt slot reductions
3) Approx 120-150 displacements

Expect the union to do nothing.
