Funny you mentioned "seasonal labor"; I believe that's how Spirit management sees pilots. Why else would they have hired and furloughed so routinely in the past?
Maybe if they hadn't been so heavy-handed with their come-back-now-or-resign, there would've been more returning. It seems to me that it will cost the same money and time to train a new-hire later in 2011 as it would've cost for a returning furloughee.
