Default Good news for AA pilots
There is a blog saying American Airlines will not be furloughing pilots. A little bit of good news amidst lots of bad news. Kind of a bummer they stopped recalls, but good that more pilots will not be jobless.

Sky Talk: AA: No pilot layoffs after all

No more furloughs, officially announced by the Co yesterday. As for when recalls are restarting, who knows? My guess would be sometime next spring. We have had 168 early retirements since July 1.

Yeah, guess they decided the 2000 of us on the street already was sufficient.
