Yes Foxhunter, it is wise for us to be worried...........FDX finally got rid of all their Flight Engineers last month. PBS would get rid of another 400-700 Pilots due to reduced manning requirement with massive gains in Productivity in the FDX system! Just say NO

So Fox, you were first furloughed in 1970, which meant you had to be hired sometime in the 60's. You just retired, like last year. I'm doing the math, and you must of been hired at Seaboard as a teenager. What year of High School did they take you?

I've always wondered how FH got to be the AOEA (All-knowing Oracle of Everything Aviation) with only a 10th grade education ... now we know

No I was 21 when hired, but came close to being hired a year earlier.
