Most have found jobs in and out of this industry, but ALL (and loads of fellow professionals) will never forget what RAH did to them and their families.

....oh yeah if you did not know there was element of sarcasm in this post...

You do realize that whatever may have been going on at Midwest prior to the acquisition, it was RAH that actually pulled the trigger and terminated all the Midwest employees. All the Midwest folks got out of the deal was a nice "F**K you and your family" from the benevolent overlords.

Welcome to just about EVERY industry in the U.S. ! Capitalism is a great thing. Capitalism without a conscience is what we have today from corporate America.
 
One 20 year Capt is now an FAA ACI.
 
How does this relate to the original question? How about a little FOCUS...


Dude, this if FI... The second you post you are open to stupid answers and ridicule. There is no focus. Ask a stupid question get 50 answers that you really have no idea if they are good or completely made up.
oh and I forgot that thread hi-jack! ALPA sucks, MESA sucks, RJ's suck, Mainline pilots suck.... you opend the door don't bash when you get pushed though it.

PS spelling sucks too!
 
Did they take a pay cut somewhere or are they working at the payscale in place when they signed up for the job?

(*Sorry off-topic. I know: FOCUS!*)

At least one went to Hawaiian. A couple went to Jetblue. A few went to Evergreen and Polar/Atlas. A couple junior first officers went to Compass. I think the majority of them are without jobs or out of aviation though. The top 60 are waiting for their Republic/Frontier captain spots.

Evergreen hired a few of the Midwest Pilots.

Already mentioned my man.
 
Not surprised that Air Tran would hire a bunch given their 717 experience.


Newhires go into 737 aircraft just as often as 717, so I don't think it really matters that they flew 717. More importantly, they were a highly experienced group of pilots who needed a job NOW.

AirTran pilots knew the Midex guys got hosed and encouraged the Company to hire as many as possible, including, I believe, a letter to that effect from our MEC.
