USA 3000 Furlough

[NEDude]

Furlough is from August 19 through December 8. Winter schedule is for 11 airplanes and full compliment of pilots...as of now.

Time to get serious about Asia.

Hey Say Over Again, has there been a raise in A-320 captain pay in Vietnam recently?

to my tsa bros and hos that are there, i'm sorry to hear of your furlough. at least you got typed-- i would take the unemployment--- get another type rating in a bizjet-- maybe one that netjets already flies and enjoy the time off .

im sure me and shrek arent too far from you.

anyway , i enjoyed hanging out with you guys at the double tree last decemeber.
best of luck to carlos and my polish friend,

SKIPPY when will the madness end and we can just go to work without having to worry about how the price of oil, supply and demand, weather, terrorism etc makes our jobs secure or not geez

-- i would take the unemployment--- get another type rating in a bizjet--

How would this be financed? Out of pocket or is there some program that will help?

There is another thread on that topic floating around here somewhere...majors board I think. Anyways from what I got from it there is a program that might help you pay for your type have read on that thread that it varies by state or county and they government or who ever they are will pay anywhere from 0-100% of the cost of the type. There is a link to the official site, but I didn't click on it to read it just read some of the posts on the thread and thats about what I remember.

True so true...........

The PI purge to the line in June is cancelled. So it might be to train the 735 crews in the bus etc.

Wish it was for newhires but I highly doubt it......

Hi!

I think that Vietnam Air DID just raise their pay. I think they also changed your schedule if you want to live in the US, to 30/30. It was 6 wks on/2 wks off.

Any of the ex-ACA/IDE guys over there going to be affected by this?

I don't like to post names on a message board, but yes, there are a few.

 

[Say Again Over]

All pilots just received a small $200 a month raise for cost of living, for 6/2 schedule CA $10,800.00, FO $8000.00 net per month.

Allegiant will now be the only airline with regular year round services at PIE. There really is not anyone else to fill the gap. Every other scheduled LCC/legacy flys into TPA, except Virgin and I do not think FL is on their radar right now.

That sucks. Hope it works out alright for everyone involved.

Sorry guys--esp. my former TWA friends.

The government got real savvy about the types toward the end. You could get bucks but had to prove you had a job lined up before they would cut the check.

I didn't hit them then but if the hatchet drops on me again, they're gonna be on the hook for a GV recurrent!

Good luck all...TC

USA 3000 is now advertising for pilots. Will it all be referals or is there any chance for outsiders?
