Encore Recalls

[CaptainHaddock]

Look like the ‘training’ purgatory of 55MMG is gone also for the bump down pilots. They will earn whatever the monthly blocking window is.

125 Recalls by July 1

Safe to assume those spots will all be filled with mainline pilots?
Given the recent round of 400 layoffs and the fact most of them had a fair amount of seniority.

Sounds like this is all new guys. This isn't a reduction bid. It's gonna be all laid off guys

That is correct. Even though there’s going to be outrage and maybe a grievance filed by the WJAMEC, the only people eligible for this recall are pilots who were furloughed from Encore. If a WJA or WSW pilot did not bump into Encore, they’re not considered being furloughed from Encore.

Short term gain for long term pain.

Who's feeling the pain?

How do you know there won't be any mainline recalls announced in couple of weeks?
Recall doesn't mean being trained.

Those that will be affected when the “one list” disappears. Covid has brought to light the issues with the one list and the companies ability/willingness to circumvent it. It’s only a matter of time before it’s voted out.

You might have misunderstood me.

The 125 recalls are being offered ONLY to those who were furloughed from Encore.

This is not at all related to the 80 recalls at WJ.

2023 is when the new CA comes in for WS & WSW which is when this is most likely going to happen as we all already know.
This whole process has been a mess and I feel for the guys/gals who are going to be affected by this. Hopefully doesn't happen imo.

There have been a couple ground schools so far, next is planned for Jun 7th YYZ base.....subject to change now I’m guessing
