No brainer.
Is this the agreement you speak of? It clearly is speaking of recalls... recalls are furloughs. What if they just wind it down, no furloughs?

November 4, 2009 Captain Joe Muckle, President Teamsters Local 1224 2754 Old State Route 73 Wilmington, OH 45177 Dear Captain Muckle: Air Transport Services Group and its successors (ATSG) shall secure the commitment from each air carrier within its corporate structure, presently Capital Cargo, Inc. and ATI, Inc., and from any other airline that may come within its corporate structure in the future, that in lieu of new hires, the carriers shall recall crewmembers who occupy a position on the ABX Air, Inc. Crewmember Seniority List, including Professional Flight Engineers (Professional Flight Engineers can be recalled only to PFE positions). The recall shall be in order of seniority (Date of Hire), and the recall procedure shall be that as set forth in the collective bargaining agreement between Airline Professionals Association, Teamsters Local 1224 and ABX Air, Inc. (“ABX”), except that bypassing a recall to another ATSG carrier shall not be considered a refusal under Article 7(G). ABX crewmembers who are recalled under this Letter of Agreement shall maintain their years of longevity accrued at ABX for purposes of pay and benefits at the other ATSG carrier. Their relative seniority with the carrier to which they are recalled shall start at the bottom of that carrier’s crewmember seniority list. ABX crewmembers who are recalled under the provisions of this Letter of Agreement shall retain their recall rights to ABX, except that such crewmembers shall not be eligible for recall to ABX for a period of two years from the date of recall to another ATSG carrier. Additionally, any recalled crewmember who successfully upgrades either in position or equipment will be subject to any seat or equipment freeze that applies at that carrier and will not be eligible to transfer back to ABX Air, Inc. until the end of that freeze. Sincerely, Agreed to and accepted this 4th day of November 2009: Article 26 (264) 2009 Contract
