The appeal case for the terminated 8 National pilots was heard on the 27th of June and they are eagerly awaiting the decision which at this stage is expected to be next week (maybe, after all it is PNG).
This decision will be final and will determine if they are to be reinstated or not.
The last Q400 has left the shores. Of the Q400 pilots, 2 are now on the 767, 1 has gone back to the Dash and 1 is suspended indefinitely on full pay.
Some brave sole has accepted a direct entry onto the 737 as Captain. Obviously he doesn't read PPrune.
Neither management nor the Fleet office made the current pilots aware of this appointment and several who were eligible, with 13 - 17 with Poxie, understandably are not happy. So much for repayment for loyalty.
Also yet to be confirmed is that the Court orders have to date not been served upon the company. This is possibly due the the appeal process but is only a guess at this stage.
Hard to get anything definite while the elections continue.
