I've had similar conversations and have the same sense that a number of them are preparing to leave. In fact, after five months of my seniority number moving up only 5 or 6 a month since age 65 passed, this month it moved up 25 numbers.

So the question is - if the company "expects" 200 age 60ish guys to leave, is the number of 200 furloughs we've been hearing about in addition to that number, for a total of 400 or so??? That would match better to the net parking of 50 or so airplanes that also seems to be kicking around, i.e., all the 300's.
