US Airways Pilot Pool and Hiring

[Mad Dog 80]

Does US Aiways have a pilot pool. If so does anybody know how many are currently swimming. How will this affect the pilot window.

Last I heard there was a pool of 10.

Last I heard there was a pool of 10.

This is confirmed.

If they just posted a bid for 40 new hires then they are going to need to open the window if they only have 10 in the pool.

Something close to 40 west pilots on furlough bypass as well currently

My buddy just whent back to the West side. He starts class on Monday.

I think the West only has 34 now on forloughed. I think his class only has 6 guys.

My buddy just whent back to the West side. He starts class on Monday.

Is he returning from a leave of some sort? Or is he going to the east side, but starting training out west? They have started a few east bound classes in Phoenix. There haven't been any recalls to the west in awhile.

Got recalled from furloughed, West side. In class Monday.

The only positions currently being offered to the west furloughs are east side positions. Word is no recalls to west metal until sometime after the first of the year........maybe. The last recall to the west side was early 2011.
