I, too, have been in this for a while.... In my 17th year at mainline and have never been furloughed. I just got lucky. However, for the first time in my career, senior pilots are finally retiring in meaningful numbers. IMHO we're looking at upward movement that will define the rest of our careers.. For all of us.
