There you go removing FO’s from your flight deck... AGAIN!.Is that your only solution? 20 years here 17 as a Captain...never removed a FO ever.....you might need to remove yourself. Honestly you need to come up with a better solution. Like communicating

Im pretty sure the company allowed exceptions during that time so downgraded capts wouldn’t have to buy new jackets (or have them tailored), new epaulets and new hats (like any self respecting pilot would wear that thing if they weren’t forced to).

I'm sure people probably missed it, but the update today casually mentioned we expect the summer schedule to run 450-500 flights per day. Pretty sure we were over 1000 per day last summer. 50% is better, but it's probably not going to stop downgrades. Fingers crossed I guess

Regionals recover first, and feel it last. The company will come for concessions first, maybe a bankruptcy, and then consider furloughs/downgrades. Delta/Endeavor want to be in a position to capture market share when the recover does come around. It’s gonna be the early 2000s all over again if mainline give sup scope.

Roughly 900 furloughs 450 downgrades.
And I went to Ole Miss for those of you wondering.
