Just an informal poll of furloughed pilots:
Attn Furloughees with 1998-2002 hire dates: Did any of you get your preference form for Jets4Jobs yet?
The company appears to have ambitious goals to very quickly ramp up RJ deliveries. I would think that getting the preference form out to the furloughees in order to create the bid for J4J carriers and MidAtlantic would need to come out pretty quickly to give the company some idea of how many people they will need to place, where they will need to go, and when to schedule classes.
Also, does anyone know if MidAtlantic will definately be a part of mainline (like Metrojet was) and, if so, will furloughed pilots be given the option of bypassing a recall at MidAtlantic and waiting for mainline? If not, will bypassing a recall at MidAtlantic forfeit your recall from the mainline?
I would have assumed the furlough administrator would be providing us with updates regarding this information, but I have not gotten an update from him in quite some time.
Thanks in advance for your responses.
