Do you specifically think that he said pilot furloughs can be avoided with reduced hours? Based on what? A conference call? Was that call really focused on pilots?
If so, why did UCH just complete a 5000 pilot surplus that cleared close to 4000 pilots from their "needed" roster? There is already substantial action already in place implementing their training plan. They REALLY are implementing it. Will it go that far? Demand will determine that. Pilot concessions won't.
