Comair is also losing quite a few pilots (looks like 10/mo) and so the projected furloughs MIGHT not happen until 2012.
Most folks feel that this is Delta's last chance to get Comair trimmed up enough to sell. If they can't sell a 49 plane company then the most likely next step would be to dissolve it and send the planes to whomever will give 4-1 trades on the 50.
Thanks for the info. I really havent flown since I left comair. But im in management for a medical company now and I hate my job. The pay is great but I can't do this forever. I've been looking at getting back into flying as a part time instructor. Maybe build some more time and get ready for another hiring boom. Good luck to everyone still there. Looks like it will be an uncertain ride for you all.
