You're forgetting one thing; XJT already has the aircraft sitting around doing nothing right now (reference the "charter" department). It doesn't matter how cheap they were to secure the flying, the company has been operating for the past year with 30 a/c doing practically nothing. Putting these aircraft into service will only help the company generate more revenue; it won't result in any paycuts. As far as TSA claiming they need to send the letters for the recall notice per the contract, come on people, its not that hard. All they would have had to do is send recall notices after the fact with an amendment attached that each pilot had to sign forfeiting their 30 day recall notice. You think pilots wouldn't be willing to give up the 30 day notice if it meant they could come back for sure? OF COURSE THEY WOULD. There are ways to get around everything if management actually cares about the pilot group.
