Except in this case BTLers need senior guys to help them...I am just going to assume that all 2500 WARN pilots will be on a ZTL bid status one way or another when this is done...I hope I wrong, but there is no drawback for the company to NOT do this for those seven months...I hope i am very wrong about this and the company is truthful in the number they are going to tell us they "would" have furloughed when this bid is over.
