This is something that I hear Eagle guys getting wrong all the time. The 95% furlough protection was a snap shot on the day that contract was signed. They took the seniority list and circled the guy who was at 95% on the list. from then on, they only have to furlough protect up to that guy. So as he moves up the list to 90% then 80% they still only have to furlough protect up to that guy. its not always 95% of our list.
'What' also mentioned Eagle pilots go at 25%. not sure what thats about. The guys with numbers go in seniority order. then the 824 go at 50% but can be withheld to 20 per month. After the 824 go then i think it goes to 35% of new hire classes.
