Um, sure.

Perhaps this was said by a voluntary furloughee who is hanging out at CAL??? (Many of these pilots will absolutely return to their prior CA seats after SLI--unless, of course, they take their recall to UAL first. And the recalls only recently started.)

You are almost certainly correct.

I can't speak for others but of all the potential options in 2005, CAL was not even on my radar. Please don't take offense but 05 CAL first year pay, commuting to EWR (or IAH), and no health insurance???

No thanks.
