I'd been here at ASA for a year now and I know there is about 300+ behind me. I had been wondering the same about where you could feel somewhat safe. I'm marketable in other fields and have all sorts of safety nets so Im not too worried about it. Something I had mentioned in another thread which helps to let me sleep a little better is that ASA to the best of my knowledge has never since they started service in 1979 furloughed a pilot. They also have had a pretty good record when it comes to financial reporting in which the first year in service was the only year they had ever come up short. I believe there is something to be said about that as Im not really sure where they stand in comparison to other regionals when it comes to that sort of thing. Granted times are significantly different now and we all expect some interesting changes this year I think ASA will be one of the regionals left standing with minimal damage when the dust settles. But what do I know Im still just a rookie.
