What then entitles YOU to have an opinion?

Or to critique his?
No because he ignores the facts for a baseline. He doesn’t acknowledge the WHO or Dr.Fauci who has repeatedly said that a vaccine in 2020 is highly unlikely. A more realistic timeline for a vaccine is estimated as 12-18 months away, which would still be unprecedented for this type of vaccine project. All the pieces of the developmental stages have to work nearly perfectly to meet this projected date. The manufacturing capacity to make the vaccine also needs to be a coordinated global effort. It is also likely that there will have to be a roll-out of a vaccine to the most at risk individuals (health-care workers, individuals with pre-existing health issue) first, as the multiple billions of doses needed may not be able to be produced in such a short time after identification of a candidate vaccine.

So once this above happens. Then throw out your best or worse guess for a travel bounce back. Not a minute sooner. Do you really think the company does not knows this. But you want to finance the pilot salary with your own for the next 24 months.

let’s see 12-18 months for vaccine. 24 month TA. Hmmm...

if Duvie and others would quit hiding behind the nonsense of “IFs and Hope” Or “Maybe in 6-8 months” for their own agenda and use actual facts they would come to the same conclusion. But he doesn’t want to admit that he wants to keep his salary and has no problem having another pilot pay for it.

As that one guy says “Facts don’t care about your feelings”. And that probably means I will be furloughed as well.
