Almost 1800 pilots retire between now and end of 2022 which would bring us down to 12,857-2500=10,357 on the seniority list so roughly 9000-9500 active pilots flying by the end of 2022 if we did nothing. BS stated on Skyhub that the current projection is to have 11,500-12,000 active pilots for summer 2022 so maybe a seniority list of around 13,000. How could we realistically furlough 2500 pilots and have them all back by summer 2022. I understand these are just projections but if these are the real numbers they are looking at no way could we furlough that many pilots.
