Since we are fact checking
Didn't in fact SWA furlough pilot's early on when they went from 3 to 2 737-200s? I don't have a dog in this fight but I am Rain Man when it comes to airline history and maybe I misread it when The Peoples Court was on but I am pretty certain SWA has in fact furloughed pilots before.
I hope it certainly doesn't happen and SWA survives this apparent Coup de tat but, if we're just talking facts. Just the facts mam!
