December United Class Date

all part of the 2012 hiring boom, how many of the recalls will leave jobs and create new openings for other pilots?

Welcome in advance...I can tell you that our (L-CAL) latest system bid showed over 400 vacancies for fos in just about every base on the narrow bodies. That includes 756 in EWR and IAH. also once the combined seniority list is finalized, there will be 1 pilot retiring every 20 hours for the next 10 years or about 400+ a year.

There are large airplane orders as well. Assuming the contract is passed in the next year, reserve rules and pay will be similar to those at Delta ( so we hear) or at least vastly improved from today. It wont pass if they aren't

Dont let all the negativity get to you and enjoy the ride. Again welcome back

Thank you for the welcome back...I'm very excited to return!

I like this attitude. We're all such cynics, for whatever reasons we hold, but you're going with enthusiasm. Well done sir.

Huh? How do you know what passion I share and don't? I simply said you are annoying. Question after question after question. If you are so well up on the hiring you should know that the UNICAL pilot window opening up for street hiring right now is pure speculation and optimistic assumptions depending on how many L-UAL pilots accept fall classes on the CAL side, but nothing has been officially announced by anyone. Stop asking, start reading.

RELAX. Don't be an A$$HOLE. No one is impressed by your smart mouth comments.

according to the employee bulletin 4000 retirements at United in the next 10 years.

I know CAL work rules blow, trust me I've been here long enough to live through them. (first year pay, no comment) But, I've also had a blast working here. Really cool flying, good airplanes and good crews. I also have some UAL furloughed friends that are on the 737 and they are actually really enjoying it.

Anyway, just trying to be a little positive in this screwed up industry! good luck to those applying.
