Note the flame on the post...

This was the design of one man, and does not represent the RAH pilot group. We all want the furloughs back. All furloughs. He's just trying to help his fellow furloughed pilots and we certainly can't blame him for that.

As far as I'm conerned the thread title implies RAH furloughs. To me that means RAH pilots whom were furloughed prior to the acquistion of Midwest or Frontier and Lynx.

Not sure what your getting at. I was furloughed before the F9 deal was complete. I belive this would put me at the bottom of the list. I will go overseas before I do that. I mean, I make more now at Lowes then an RP FO. Good luck to all F9 and Midwest guys.

What I was getting at is simple, this petition leads me to believe it was meant for the 100+ Republic furloughees across all three certificates, Shuttle America, Republic Airlines, and Chautauqua and not Frontier and Midwest Airlines.

 

[707eng]

Yes that is how I read it also. I dont have any respect for these guys. Sorry you didnt get the sarcasm in my original post.

This was written by a RAH employee on furlough, attempting to encourage management to recall RAH pilots.

All RAH furloughs were out of a job before the acquisitions of Midwest and Frontier. All RAH furloughs were out of a job before RAH began to fly for Midwest under the codeshare agreement.

The RAH furloughs have obviously not been a part of Midwest's woes.

The RAH furloughs have been overlooked and ignored by RAH management in a variety of printed and published statements, both before and during the acquisition spree.

The RAH furloughs have been on the street for over a year. Forgive them for being impatient.

The RAH furloughs are aware of how understaffed RAH is, and are aware of the desperate means scheduling has resorted to in an attempt to keep airplanes running on schedule.

The furloughee who wrote this petition did so out of his own personal frustration, and does not speak on behalf of the union, the active pilots, or the other furloughed RAH pilots.

RAH pilots fully support the return of our furloughs, especially given our desperate need for reserve pilots and pilots to cover all of the upcoming training events.

RAH pilots support the integration of all acquired airlines, and want to see everyone returned to the cockpit as soon as possible.

RAH needs pilots.

RAH will only recall pilots from the RAH seniority list. I hope that the number of pilots eligible for recall is not limited to strictly current RAH pilots on furlough.

I hope and expect that anyone on furlough anywhere can understand why this pilot would want to see himself and other affected pilots recalled as soon as possible, especially when there is an apparent need for recalls.

I hope everyone understands that the means this pilot has used to convey his will to see RAH pilots returned to duty is not necessarily the best thought out plan, and does not represent any plan undertaken by the Teamsters, nor is it representative of the overall opinion of RAH pilots about who of the new RAH "family" is most deserving of returning to the cockpit first.

RAH and the teamsters have not expressed in any way their ideas of who should return to work first, in which airframe, in which base, etc.

This is one guy who wants back to work, and is willing to say it directly to management. Admire him for his will, and courage to go straight to the top. I hope it works out for him, but we all know management reads spreadsheets and cost breakdowns, not letters from labor.

There is nothing to see here, just a furloughed pilot who understands that his services are needed, and that the company is just trying to ignore the obvious.
