Now if they want to shut your doors where wod they get the pilots and planes to fill your spot? Again, it would take YEARS to replace the gap your flying would leave... Look at XJT, think they're afraid???
Give the scare tatics a rest... If your afraid of a furlough, you shouldn't be in the airlines...

It looks like the official logo has a small 'e' instead of a capital 'E' just to make it even more diminutive. Terry Maxon at the Dallas Morning News points out it's not Envoy Airlines either, it's just envoy.
