Man says he was called back to Hawker Beechcraft but later told there was no work

(WINFIELD, Kan.) — Imagine getting the call-back letter you've been waiting two years for, only to have it's offer withdrawn a week later.

That's what happened to Zach McCaslin. He was laid off from Hawker Beechcraft back in 2009. In August, he received a certified letter saying he was being called back.

"We were very excited because the insurance is so much better and pays better and everything was better when I was there."

McCaslin gave notice at his job and his wife made arrangements to drop their insurance, all in anticipation that Zach would be going back to Hawker. But last week, the company called with bad news.

"They said they were going to fulough people off the of the line where I was going to work and they were going to have to withdraw the job offer."

We contacted Hawker Beechcraft which said situations like this are unfortunate and very rare.
"It made you sick to your stomach because the insurance is gone, that was my last day at work and I didn't know what we were going to do," said McCaslin.

Zach's jobs is going to let him continue to work part-time, and the family should have insurance again by the middle of the month. But Zach says he has no idea if he'll ever get to return to the job he's been hoping for.

"I don't know if they'll ever call me back."
