Re: ASA Pilots ROCK! I think ASA did a fantastic thing by supporting preferential hiring for Delta furloughs.
I've got pilots that I'm sponsoring that have been furloughed since October 2001 that appreciate the gesture by ASA and it will be remembered once things turn around at mainline.
The concept was simple. Preferentially hire Delta furloughs and we'll reciprocate by preferentially hiring ASA pilots that want to jump to mainline when things turn around.
It's unfortunate that the Comair group decided to throw a bunch of unreasonable stipulations and then tell us to "hit the road".
Besides, it wouldn't hurt because DELTA bears all of the costs for training and subsequent attrition due to re-hiring at mainline.
Personally, I have a very long memory. |
