Thanks. It is very unfortunate the they are in the position they are in. It has been a favorite regional for a lot of people. Our seniority list is very senior, and that is one of the big issues when it comes down to talking pay cuts and fleet downsizing. It has been a career for many pilots. A company that used to treat its employees well, pay better than average, good wook rules and the small company feel, where you could know everyone you work with. In my opinion, Mesaba will come out of this, it is only a matter of when and for how little pay. My personal question is can I hold out that long, should I hold out that long and can I live on that pay. 146 of us on furlough now, looks like another 40ish to come by Aug-Sep.
