I'll attempt to honestly answer your questions:

Training restart - while those in the training house say "soon" I see no movement in that direction.

Cadet priority - I have no idea, but the minimums on the website changed to ATP, CURRENT IFR and CURRENT Landings. If you don't have that, expect nothing.

Mesa flying is down to about 40% of pre-Covid on the American side and 60% on the United side. Expecting further reductions in the short term.

Training by year end? Unlikely.

Furlough - even if we pick up all of GoJets flying (training center rumor) and lose nothing more I see us as seriously overstaffed at least in the short term. When AA and UA scope kicks in in March I see us shrinking further. I don't see how we avoid furloughs.
Company says no furloughs planned.

Final point - I hope I'm wrong. A vaccine generally accepted and distributed that actually works could change things radically.

A sudden onset of common sense could as well. Neither are very likely.

Will cadets still have priority when it does restart?

How much is Mesa really flying right now?

Is going to training before the end of the year a possibility?

Has there been any word on Furlough at Mesa yet?
