US Airways Pilot Pool and Hiring

[pave driver]

I've asked this before and will here again. Does anyone know if Parker received an approval for a new separate America West certificate? The rumor I've heard is that he wants to integrate the original US Airways with American to avoid past labor problems. I have heard this more the once and need to find where to get information on this. Thanks.

The west is being spinned off to Republic- the rumer is true. You heard it here first

That's funny stuff.

St. Nic,

If I wanted a childish response I'll ask my kids. Anyone else know where to find this information?

 

[Flybywire44]

The Nic is conditional on an East/West TA that will never happen.

Now we have a CLA that includes APA as third party not interested in Nicoli's arbitrated seniority award.

Per age 65, AMR/US Air will retire 4234 pilots in the next 8 years—America West pilots will be fine either way. :smash:

DOH = gold standard

If DOH is the gold standard, one must wonder what would happen in the next 7 years when half the current East group ends up retiring due to age 65? Their seats will be replaced by newhire US Air pilots from the regionals/military/corporate/etc, and they will be at the bottom of the list. The Am West pilots + the newhire US Air pilots will, one day in the next 7 years, outnumber the number of original older US Air guys. Once that happens, isn't the tide going to change back against the favor of USAPA? And then when the East oldies don't hold majority, won't the Nic award be implemented?

You're saying that the retirements of East pilots will allow for an appeal later?

Doubtful, Nic will either be implemented before the merger or never.

I suggest usapa HQ, they'll give you the scoop.

US Airways has a single operating certificate issued by the PIT CMO.

Doug Parker has been on the record numerous times in many of our "Crew News" sessions that he can't and won't split the company.

I have to take issue with the word " Unexpected ". I think you meant to say that this thread has taken it's Expected turn. Sorry bud but just about any thread that mentions US Air will ALWAYS end up circling the bowl with the same sorry azz individuals from both sides of the Mississippi tossing crap into the fan.

Thanks for the serious answer LD, but I was being facetious. Usapa makes Bahgdad Bob look credible.

 

[Guppiedriver]

Don't forget to give him credit for rumer too.

Sorry, I guess I should have mentioned the word sarcasm in my post.

No reason to be sorry. I should have picked up on your sarcasm. My bad, unfortunately every thread degenerates into a pissing contest with these yahoos and I almost always have to assume the worst when it involves this dysfunctional pilot group.

So I looked at my status today for my online application and it said this "jobBid.status.AI.Dmail.not.sent". It used to say under review. Anyone else have this status or know what it means? Thanks

 

[Acey588]

Yeah, mine too. It's probably some error.

 

[Mad Dog 80]

I have been hearing the pilot window will be opening August 1, 2012????? Can anyone confirm this rumor. Thanks

 

[cbrown1]

Mine still says under review for what it's worth.
Did you guys get the invitation email at the end of may to reapply?

 

[LittleDeuce]

I'm not sure about the August 1 date but I would say that would be about right because...the October bid will be out on July 13 and there will be an additional 50 new hires in addition to the privious 40 on the last bid.

 

[undpilot]

Anyone know the total number in the 7/16 class? Equipment being offered?

 

[Citjok]

Adding 5 E190's by years end. It will be included in the next bid. (This from a reliable source).

 

[Jackie Moon]

Anyone know how many regular and reserve lines there are on the E-190?
