CAL pilots don't have to be junior manned, they pick up open time to get to 100 hours. Most don't care about you. I've been flying with many Captains over age 60 and guys who fly 100+ hours (with deadhead) and ask them about what they think about the guys furloughed or the guys displaced. One said, "Why should I finance their career?" Another said, "Everyone gets furloughed in their career." One said, "I have to make up the cuts I took in the last contract." There are a lot of guys who care about you, I wish it was a majority. I wish the union or the pilots themselves would limit flying and no picking up of open time. You guys would be back on property ASAP. Good luck to you all. I have not gone over min guarantee since the furloughs.
