Continental to furlough 140-180 pilots | | Dallas Morning News

Plus what about this one?

I guess this newspaper got it wrong.

Jan 11, 2002

HOUSTON(AP) - Continental Airlines said Thursday it will furlough 100 more pilots in March bringing the total number of pilots laid off since the Sept 11 attacks to 539.

I was specifically referring to the era of the disputed/convoluted years. Not post 9-11. However, those guys were back in fairly short order. Sorry if I confused you. But, the post 9-11 furloughs, excluding MLLV was about 400. The company counted those on MLLV and that number was about another 150 who went back on active duty or who were federally activated. I was activated and was one of those mis-counted.
