Sairways still has the oldest pilot group

The first 4 all went west I know this as fact. As for the furlough it is allways possible, but at least Usairways still has the oldest pilot group. Good luck with your decision.

It was five but who's counting.....
2 of us 5 are actually very happy to be out West!

..and so will USAirways.

Don't worry PF the fearless 5 are going to all chip in and get you some therapy..... it will all be OK, I promise.

I, too, have been in Recruiter Review since January. Any idea on what that means or if I even have a shot?

There are several other US air topics that answer this. Several by me. Search it out, homey!

Rusty I am kinda wierd about trying for US Airways too. Right now if you go and by chance they furlough you have no flowback rights to PDT. Thus now if you get furloughed from a mainline job during a downturn you are screwed. Where are you gonna go?

From what I hear too was the the guys that got based out West have to pay for there hotels because they are consider in base.

Everything is a risk, but with things the way they are I think I will chill and wait to see if the flowthru does get worked out.

Be nice to have a safety net with all thats going on.

Dont miss the boat Surf......
Sure it would be nice to have a safety net of flow back...... but not if you cant get there in the first place. I'm not counting on it (FB) but supposedly we earlier movers would be grandfathered into reaping any rewards from a flow through deal anyhow, so why wait and loose relative seniority on bases and equipment? If you are getting PHX as a base you are considered as training in domicile and you are not entitled to being put up after indoc. it sucks but that is life.... 4 of us got together and have a very comfortable crash pad apartment 15 minutes away from the airport with 3 pools, a lighted tennis court, work out facility ,hot tub and plenty of places to eat within walking distance and bike riding for the grand sum of $158 bucks a piece. Is that really so bad? Face it you will need a crash pad down the road anyhow so you just get one 3 weeks early in our case thats less than a $200 tax deductible expense. It's all what you make of it my friend....
Jump in the waters fine! (before they empty the pool)

You know I've never been a big fan of the airlines that do all of that extra testing stuff on interviews that has zip to do with flying, but you're starting to sway me Buddha.
