In simple words, I would not expect anything until FEB09. I am on furlough, trust me I want them to start calling...

imho.
I disagree.

Those who get called back effective March 1st will need to bid for March 1st. So they need to know who is coming back by February 11th or whenever March bidding opens. Add to that the pilots have at least 14 days to answer or reject a recall. Finally on top of all that those guys need to be trained as well. Now you are talking about middle to end of January. This base bid will close today I believe. If we will not hear anything in the next two weeks I doubt there will be a March call. On the other hand it seems the info on the line is that they are short. I have my hopes up.
