According to the forecast, North America will need the most pilots and
maintenance workers - 97,350 and 137,000 respectively - but the largest
growth in both pilots and maintenance workers will be countries in Asia-
Pacific - 180,600 and 220,000 respectively.
In Asia, China will experience the greatest need for pilots and maintenance
personnel - 70,600 and 96,400, respectively. Europe will need 94,800 new
pilots and 122,000 of maintenance personal.
Yeah, odie we had 'em where we wanted them back in about 98-2000. Then 9/11 happened and the bottom fell out, thousands of a/ps laid off, airline industry decimated.
The industry suddenly artificially flooded with a/ps. It's starting to come aorund again. I've been tellin' people 2-4 yrs, and we'll be back in the drivers seat. IMO...of course.
Has anybody heard the rumor AMP is close to filing with the NMB? I have.
The game has changed since the last card drive, it is now votes cast that determines the victer, not 50% +1 of the membership. Example...AMP files with the NMB and we are granted a vote, if 1000 votes are cast and 501 are for AMP, AMP wins. When it comes to a vote, by by twu, hello Democracy.<_< ------- How are the new NMB rules going to effect the filing?--------- Have they gone into effect yet?------- Do you feel they will help, or hinder, AMP's chances of over turning the TWU? :huh:
Better hurry because the republicans are pushing through an amendment to the faa bill to put the old nmb election rules back in.The game has changed since the last card drive, it is now votes cast that determines the victer, not 50% +1 of the membership. Example...AMP files with the NMB and we are granted a vote, if 1000 votes are cast and 501 are for AMP, AMP wins. When it comes to a vote, by by twu, hello Democracy.
