Just annouced, all the furloughed west pilots are being offered recall to Phoenix.
Are folks still showing up for newhire class even thought the merger is being put in doubt?
Yes, we just issued E190 Type ratings to new hires this morning while interviews were going on down the hall.
It may be too early to tell long term but 18 month upgrades provide lots of motivation...
If I had a five dollar bill for every time I had a pilot tell me about promises for a <2year upgrade that didn't pan out, I wouldn't have to work anymore!
But I'm glad folks are still showing up for classes, for now.

I can understand your skepticism but one just finished his training yesterday and more just started training.
It's happening for sure. How long it will last is another thing!
How much are they paying these upgrades and how long would that same upgrade take at an airline with a higher pay scale?
Current payscale on the 190 would put them an 82/hr. If the merger goes through, they are protected at 105/hr since Feburary (115/hr in January)... 115 second year isn't too shabby... How does that compare to the other majors?

When was the last newhire class? Or have they all been postponed now?
Know the class breakdown? Anyone getting something other then an E190?
