Sorry, I'm not a math guru but 500 minus 200 on furlough equals 300 left. 1000 pilots 4 years ago minus the 300 left equals 700 fewer pilots. Just sayin'

And good luck with the vote however it turns out. At least you had a choice....

I never graduated math class in college! Thanks I made the change
 
You could be right.....but....remember 4 years ago we had 1000 pilots, and before the furlough we had about 500 and then we furloughed 200. So that means in four years we lost 700 pilots (and all those paying customers), so, please so me a pot o' gold. Im all for compairing us to them, but we gotta look at the past as an indication of where we are today.
I hated to vote yes to this, POS, but I did. I feel that the company needs time to rebuild, I'll give them the time. I'm not happy about it, but thats the way it is right now.

I hope the best for you guys!
 
Who will be next to step down? My guess is Bob Reinhold...and thats a great thing...

Bob Reinhold...quite a guy, that one. Here's one of my conversations with BR.

BR: Where are you? Why aren't you at your aircraft?

Me: I'm at...[looks outside] Spot 20 at DIA inside a United 757 going to San Fran.

BR: Why aren't you at your aircraft?

Me: Who is this?

BR: Bob.

Me: Bob, who?

BR: Bob Reinhold.

Me: Hi, I'm Ace. How are you? I'm assigned to 750, which is in SFO, paired with XXXX and my four letter is XXXX.

BR: Where are you?

Me: OK, Bob, we're in a loop. I'm in an airplane going to SFO, as I was assigned. I just talked to someone on my row 30 minutes ago. Thanks for checking up on me. Got to go. Bye.

BR: Where are you....

[Land in SFO, turn on BB]

BB: "You have seven new messages."

Me: [calling the row] I just got seven messages...am I in trouble?

Row: No, BR just confused himself?

Me: For three hours?

Row: Do you know BR?
