Is the B6 Rumor True?

Careful what you say about his Mama! She's a good lady, hell, I was with her last night. I even shaved her back.

Dave is Evil.

What I just said

"I don't post too much on the board but I keep hearing a rumor that management at B6 is canning some senior pilots on the slightest reason - ostensibly so crew costs are kept down."

Actually, they are not just canned. They are killed and their meat is fed to the incoming classes. It's all a cycle, you see. It's a pretty brutal place to work. And, the reason no one is moving up in seniority is because they give new hires some of those seniority numbers. I was hired in October and was given seniority number 22. I don't know a heck of a lot about the airbus but I am a Captain and check airman.

ACTUALLY, I think some people outside of the company just loves to keep this rumor going. If this was happening, there would be a union in about half a second.

Thanks, your seething sarcasm was GREATLY appreciated. I'll make sure to continue to spread the good word.

It is true. My first look at February's schedule shows a trip to the "Pulping Unit" on the 22nd.

Eat hearty, mates!
