EJA to layoff 500

[Pervis]

Truely bad news. So much for my optimism. Considering my past furloughs though, with little to no notice, getting paid for the next 4 months is a pretty good deal, all things considered. I hope those who sounded bitter consider that, and four months from now is that much closer to recall. I know how frustrating this is, and there is little consolation. Hang in there. They put it off longer than many expected, and will hopefully recall sooner than anticipated.

And finally, there was a name change a number of years ago from EJA to NJA. Again, no secret there. It may be just an oversite, but one has to question the source when they use the wrong/old name.

It's a little more difficult to keep up with the industry when you're serving time for, say, stealing a Citation?

It's pretty common in CMH to use the old name as the new dumb name still gets confused with AirNet a completely different kind of operation. I'd find this slip indicative of the fact that they were acquainted with the operation.

Probably even more difficult to have any positive thoughts or hope for people when you're disgruntled, hold grudges, and are stuck in the past.

My flying partner this week is one of the NJI pilots affected by today's announcement. He has taken the news with remarkably good humor, professionalism, and optimism for his future and that of the company. I'm sure the vast majority, if not all, of the 495 pilots impacted by today's developments will react in much the same way. Let's think of them and all our fractional, airline, freight, and charter colleagues that are on the street.

Clear skies, tail winds, and a swift return to you all.

Great attitude!! I've been out for over a year now, and haven't had any solid bites. Though things may be changing for me soon...hopefully. Banging nails for a living SUCKS, but it's paying bills, somewhat!!!!!!

Same with me gutshot. The guy knew he was on the block but remained professional and cheerful even though the headwinds were picking up. God bless the ones affected and hopefully we can make the place a better company to return to.
