Makes for a good debate or discussion sure, but I think you guys are really beating your heads for nothing or for something you have no control over.
Our skill set isn’t a 50 seater skill set. We are trainable and we can adapt to a 75 seater or 90 seater or 1000 seater if need be. It’s not the end of the world if 50 seaters go away. There are other planes we can fly.
Right now our focus should be on hoping we get back to work soon especially for us furloughed lot. Our lives and finances have been impacted severely, so it doesn’t matter what we fly as long as we fly and earn and return to normalcy over the course of 2021.
Of course we could get trained on the new supersonic stuff and fly that fine, too. But when a company owns a big asset like 50 or so airplanes, it's not too savvy to just throw it away. Keep em flying, as long as gas and Mx aren't exorbitant. Let pilots bid for cargo or pax if we're doing split service.
