This number is not nearly large enough to justify a furlough. It would be a money loser for sure.
If they need to ditch 200 pilots there are certainly more than 200 willing to not come to work(ZTL) which includes myself.
Not to mention the 900 or so retiring in 2025.
Really what they should do is use the “downturn” to their advantage and get both NB acft into all bases.
