As you can see, Dec 2012 doesn't do much for the IPA. It's over 2 years just to get the furloughees back, assuming UPS wants to keep the number of pilots that they have today. The only thing to drive hiring is the NPRM, but UPS will drive as much through SCS as they can before adding IPA pilots. I was told years ago that being senior at UPS is better than passenger carriers, but being junior is much worse. No kidding, look at the 109. The pilots that are bullish at UPS are the ones not on the back of the whipsaw.
