IS the SOUTHWEST FURLOUGH RUMOR TRUE????

[RedBelly]

The fallout from the Mx issue is that people are going to forget about it in two weeks.

 

[GFunk20]

Not to mention they will fly the cheapest convenient carrier NO MATTER WHAT. Been proven over and over again regardless of media issues.

 

[RedDogC130]

as long as that carrier does not have the cheapest pilots...

When your growth starts to shrink it's probably time to get out of the pool!

I believe "growth shrinking" still means growing. If that's not an oxyMORON I don't know what is!!!!!!

hey, whatever you need to tell the ladies after you were "in the pool" is your business...

 

[jtmpilot]

I dont know man ...age 65.... shrining growth...MX issues.... herb and colleen retiring..... hmmmm. everyones pay rates are more in line now and SWAs ae growing....... 15 year upgrade over there...... starting to look like the check airmen might have some inside info....they are more in the know than the typical line pilot....typical line pilots only get propaganda sent out to them.....
It will be an intresting year any case...industry wide.......

 

[BlueandWhite]

You're right--those line pilots never talk to the training dept, PD, their chief pilots and other check airmen. I shouldn't believe anything that others post here (unless it's jke, then I'll believe everything he says).

Sorry, you're going to have to do a lot better than saying your buddy the check airman said so. If you get more details, then post.

 

[vixin]

A really good bud of mine is a check airmen and he usually ask me whats going on. He doesnt have a clue. JT now go play your older brothers xbox.

Not trying to stir the pot at all... im just surprised to hear it. SWA has always been the people place and treat their employees well. Just seems like its starting to change over there due to the state of the industry and their founder retiring......i hope its not true but the facts over the past few months...i.e. hiring over 60 guys before poolies who have been swimming for a year, MX stuff, deferred aircraft deliverys...... I wish them all the luck over there!

 

[jtmpilot]

Guess you dont either theprfct10 hmmmmm KC10s.. bet you still say step to the jet and wear your flight jacket in public huh???

 

[THEPRFCT10]

What the hell is that supposed to mean? Just like many on this now-useless thread, I try to get decent info.....how bout you? Obviously you're no better then the rest? You related to jke406 or TankerClown or the General??? Give me a break!

 

[jtmpilot]

I never called your info. useless...i was just posting what i heard and asking for feed back.....your the one who took offense to it....typical of guys who think they are the best and really are marginally safe

Dude, where do you get off calling me 'marginally safe' and I never said I was the best. I take my fare share of humble pie. Let's move on shall we?

 

[YourPilotFriend]

I suspect they will be letting some people go in the tech ops department.

 

[jtmpilot]

now back to the post.....i hope all this SWA furlough rumor is false.... but the previous stated facts do make a person wonder about the possibility of it happening....best of luck SWA

 

[vixin]

The problem with that is you dont have any facts. Just what you little mind has made up.

 

[Whine Lover]

Oh YES...The RUMOUR IS QUITE TRUE.

My friend is a SWA Check Airman ( Blow Job ) and he says the pool will be drained and that ATA Pilots will be given D.O.H. after the acquisition of Scheduled Service / Hawaii.

So Sad...too bad.

Flight Info, and the Genius Cadre' here, is an indispensable TOOL.
