To be honest, I don’t get the point of waiting to call them back. They are being paid anyway. You aren’t saving training costs, you are just differing them. I don’t think anyone realistically thinks that they are going to be furloughed again in Sept, so why keep them on the sidelines? The FO list is zeroed out basically every day (for OFE at least).

I wouldn't expect a return of QT until we're so short on pilots that they're declaring critical coverage for full months at a time and they NEED us to pick up OT as much as possible. No inside knowledge or crystal ball even. Just a hunch.

They won’t ever give QT back, it would come with a price. Last year on an all call it was said that the company values it at $500k per month. So, all we have to do is come up with $6 million and we can get it back.

I wonder how many won’t come back, and how long it’s gonna take. 50 a month looks like 5 months to me right now.

Thanks, I had to pull out my TI84 from high school.
But in reality my point is 5 months just doesn’t make any sense, they’ll clearly have to step up the rate at some points also wonder how much attrition we will see. Time will tell I’m sure we figure out more next week.
