Hey, Northwest folks....

I was just curious how long it may take to have everyone back to work. Not looking for flame, just an honest question.

probably/hopefully early 2006...

Thanx Humpty, is that due to retiring pilots, growth or just gettin' back on their feet?

The 2005 recalls are required to backfill attrition and a forecasted increased flying level.

most of the 2005 recalls are attrition.. nwa said some of the recall is for a 2-3% increase in flying.
