I would research myself, but there have been more than a dozen threads with 50+ responses about XJT & SKW in the last few weeks.
I'm sure SAAb knows the letter/rumor that I'm referring to
We are cutting 30% of our Branded flying in late August. It's amazing how people get facts wrong.
30% of our Branded flying equates to
11 planes. Those 11 planes are going to our Charter division. So if you use the whole 10 pilots per plane equation, we would only need to furlough 110 pilots. However, they are going to Charter, so it is offset somewhat. Plus, plans change day-to-day. Who knows where our airplanes could wind up in the future. All I know is we continually try and find new business and haven't furloughed a pilot yet. That is a management I can appreciate.
