Only if they believe this pilot group would give something up for "shiny new jets." I don't care if I fly a dingy old turboprop...just pay me the best in the industry, increase my QOL and solidify my scope. I'll bet I'm not alone.

Do you think the #'s skyrocketed after the AE results? If these #'s are accurate it would be fantastic! Keep climbing!!!

I'm not getting too excited yet...Last official word was 127, until we hear it from a legitimate source it is a little fishy to think it went up that much in 2 days....

The numbers I heard today were 153 total, 128 active. The rest were on some type of leave (military, medical, etc.). There are still 3 days left, and I'm sure the numbers will go up. Then through July 15 they'll go down as guys reconsider.
