HERE COMES THE LAYOFFS

[Buster CRC]

Its hard to say cause its lumped up as Mechanic AND Related. And Fleet Service and related. So when you have different title groups you would need numbers broken down better to get numbers.

I'm hearing that after the layoff and eventually when they start to recall mechanics and fleet service all the AA employees have to be recalled before they can recall exTWA? Is this true

I think these layoffs are permanent. The recall right clause will be removed from new TA. Scary!!!!

Well in Tulsa they said 2100 to 2800 lay offs there are a total of apx 400 fac. maint 500 some OSM's and as far as stores the number system wide is 275 but 240 are in AFW so the rest will be mechanics. I did the numbers of just 1000 mechanics at tulsa it goes to jan 1996 but i see that as going deeper

Keep your fingers crossed, maybe some will retire.

At this time there are no 737's being worked in 3,4,5,6 or 7.

True, but you make it sound like hanger 1&2 will be the only hangers with airframes.
It will be years before all the md-80's (hanger 3&4) go away. Then they will probably get modded to fit a 737

That was not my intent. I realize that maintenance will be drawn down over time.

Any word on ISP or LGA? They would get the pick of the litter there. AA has over 400 mechanics in the area and better than 90% would dump AA and go the SWA if they hired them, the other 10% are looking to retire.
