I hope it is not true. Anyone heard similar news?
These "talks" are among the pilots and the rest of the world only at this time, as in it is rumor only. This issue is the key issue to be addressed in the near future and, therefore, is prime fodder for speculation.
Not to say that it won't happen, however, every PR statement from the new leadership since the first furlough has been that "they think they got the number right" and that no further cuts should be necessary barring a reversal in the economy. Should a furlough be announced it will certainly circulate all financial media outlets and will be viewed as calling into question the "stability" that NJA markets. Also, this would be at a time when furloughs and layoffs have mostly subsided so it will certainly stand out from the rest of the news.
My two cents but may be worth less...
