SkyWest furlough?

[difete]

Our God given Policy Manual sent from above has provisions for furlough pilots. Ha!

No furloughs as of yet, just lots of reserves in certain domiciles.

CHQ fired rather than furlough. They have a union.

Im a furloughed CHQ ramper! Been so since September 2004!

Was that at STL? Bad deal for all.

I was referring to Oct of '01. CHQ dumped the Saabs on Shuttle America and rather than furlough in seniority they fired 125 Saab pilots that were on probation.

Axel,

No it was when they closed LNK as an out station. American ruined a good thing. CHQ had 9 packed STL flights a day. American decided to dump all that to have 3 ORD Eagle flights a day. That was a nightmare, so they closed LNK.

And I dont think that we even go there anymore.

What was the end result of those 125 pilots? Did they ever get their places back?

Correct

some stayed at oringal shuttle while others came back to chq and the rest tried something else

Didn't furlough during 9/11. Times are bad but not that bad.

Rumor. For now.

But rumors are what make FI so great.

rumours and avatars like yours.

Not true!! EMB classes are running once a month with 14-16 newhires a class for the rest of the yesr. CRJ Newhire.. the 3/10 class was the last one until September then newhires every three weeks tell the year is done. EMB upgrade 8-16 every month the rest of the year. RJ upgrade 8-12 every three weeks starting back up in june. (THIS CAN AND WILL CHANGE... IT ALWAYS HAS) most likley for the better.

Not that it really matters, but there was no 3/10 CRJ class. I think the last one was 2/18.

The only airlines going into LNK are United (Skywest and Trans States) and Northwest (Pinnacle).

Sorry, maybe I should've been more specific. I thought there was no newhire CRJ class starting on 3/10. And this was only an assumption of mine based on the fact that they told me my 3/10 CRJ newhire class was cxld.

Was the class for transitions and/or upgrades only, I hope? (otherwise, I was flat-out lied to.)
