Any rumors on your side of the fence at CAL? I am worried on the outcome of either scenario, as I am sitting 40 numbers from the bottom of UAL, with more furloughs expected in September (after the April and May furloughs) taking us all the way down to 6440 pilots (and I am 6928 as a March 2000 hire).
Thought I'd ask the other guys if they are hearing anything...
Thanks!

FWIW - just flew with a captain about 2 weeks ago that said the mgt came in and talked to them at their last recur. The CAL leadership sat down and compared UAL's books directly with CAL's and it wasn't even close. No merger in the works - from CAL's side of the house.
