Why would he furlough? I could certainly see downgrades to staff the right seat, but most would leave after downgrade. why not just sale S5 to Delta and send the pilots that are on the certificate. I'm sure Delta would love to whipsaw again. Sounds like YX will be the surviving certificate anyways.
