The part I was referring to was when you said 'it doesn't worry me one bit'; because you're not furloughed, you won't suffer more years on the street because of AMR downsizing the pilot group, delaying recalls, and ceasing to grow.
And, I'm sure you've heard about the AMR Eagle arbitration, claiming that their pilots with seniority numbers at AA should be 'hired' (not recalled, since they never were furloughed) before furloughed AA pilots who were ex-TWA? What are your thoughts on that?
