AA Recalls

[XTW]

I think we should pay homage by having a tailgate party at the exact location of the now "flown west", order of the righteous large breasted barmaids, loose female clientele, cheap beer and of course, free popcorn.....Duffy's

I hope Pat and her "twins" are doing well. They made the place something to look forward to.

Not even close to half

FWIW, there are about 500, almost half the Jet Captains at Eagle are flowbacks.

Flyby-

According to the Eagle Alpa site, about 30% of the Jet Captains are Flowbacks. And, according to Alpa there are about 340 total flowbacks at Eagle. I pasted the info below:

I don't mean any ill wishes. I try not to get involved in TWA/AA threads, though I do. It's hard not to, but whats done is done.

No matter what there will always be ill will between the two groups. I saw it at TWA with the OZ people. The best one can do is put yourself in the shoes of the losing group. It's dog eat dog. We were the ones eaten.

Life goes on. I hope my TWA bro's (pilot's and F/A's) all find work soon.

There you go causing trouble again. At least we got one of those really cool, high quality uniforms to hang in our closet.

"We were eaten"?????

Couldn't have put it better myself........

The other day I caught my kids using my AA hat as a frisbee.

Hopefully your CAL hat will have better flying qualities. :beer:

Duffy's. Now that brings back a few memories.

Count me in.

Hey I was just amazed it flew with a TWA guys kids throwing it. All those fences on it ruined the aerodynamics.

It was an aa hat,
no fences just staples!

Many of them have resigned but the last count showed 437. As far as the total percentage, I made an estimate. I figured 206 embs and 25 crjs... 231 total. If we staff at 5 crews per jet thats 1155 captains... 437 of which are fb's.

I see your numbers there, I just counted them off of the sen. list and ran some quick, albeit approximate, estimates. I don't know why those alpa numbers appear to be 100 off. Maybe more like 40% of jet ca's are fb's.

cheers

40% of jet ca's are fb's

Just stop and think about that for a second. Think about your own airline and what that would mean there.
