Default Mesa to Furlough an Additional 250 Pilots

Displacement bid due out today...

"As many of you know, we have been overstaffed for some time. In fact, we postponed a scheduled October 2008 furlough in anticipation that attrition would lower staffing levels over an 8-10 month period. Unfortunately, since our March furlough notification letter, attrition rates have declined and an additional eight aircraft have been retired from our fleet."

".....Currently, we plan to furlough approximately 250 pilots through January 2010."

Bad news for everyone. Condolences to everyone hitting the unemployment line.
