Does anyone else think that this could just be a strategy to
1.) scare senior guys to taking buy outs by threatening an insane amount of reductions
or
2.) give "notice" to a crap load of pilots even though they don't really know how many they're going to actually furlough..just to keep themselves covered to stay within contract
or any other sneaky things?
