FLOPS on the ropes?

[Dep676]

Kenn taking over would be hell loads better than the current management. At least you felt good after the screwing from him.

That just stupid talk. Yeah onced you voiced your opinion you were fired. We still have enough those Ricci rejects still hanging around CGF. The Tim twins. Need I say more?

Yeh. May have been fired for voicing my opinion, but Kenn at least had a little, note I said a little, compassion for the pilots. Current management could care less whether we are happy or not. Actually, I think they're happier when we aren't.

Yeh. We're way too big now. At least then there was a name with the screwing you got.

ps. Damn, that was 2 years ago, wont you guys ever let it go??

Ha!

Hiring at Options

Well it's not much - but I checked the seniority list today and there are 8 new names on it. To my knowledge they hired a few classes towards the end of last year but these are the first new hires in 2 months or more.

Some quick rough numbers, I was hired in July of 04' some 18 months ago.

We had 946 pilots when I was hired, today we have 824. We have hired only 55 pilots in the last 18 months which is an approximate a loss of 177 pilots.

We had 212 airplanes and we were recently told we have 179 active planes.

Well the shrinking of the acft fleet was in the plans, however shrinking of the pilot force was not!!

If the union makes it on the property, perhaps it is Mr Tyler that will require representation.

I remember being at a meeting where Ken said that he believed that the Teamsters will get into Flight Options at some point.

Lets hope he was right.

Love the avatar! Wouldn't that be cool?
