So...how many will come back?
At first I figured the recall would be quick and go senior, but now I'm beginning to wonder and here's why:
-The 209 above the most senior furloughee are probably pretty senior, some of them being widebody captains or FOs. I just don't see many, if only a few wanting to sit reserve on a 737.
-All the two timers I have talked to are very wary of hanging their cans out to dry for a third time with the economy seesawing like it is.
-Did I read the Recall FAQs right or must the military guys be released outright so they can come back and fly full time? Seems like they will have to bypass if unable...perhaps I don't understand that relationship fully.
I see the bypass ratio a little higher than previously thought. Perhaps 4-5 to 1? Any thoughts or corrections in flawed thinking.
