6 airplanes would be about 25 guys recalled hopefully.

They will only recall if the Pilots that are still there are not willing to fly extra for OT pay. I am not sure if I can see that happening.

I agree. There are senior guys doing as many as 20 days a month. I think the average line is 15 so that's 5 overtime days.

Is there a lot of pilots working OT with others on the street?

I would hate to see others cashing in OT with brothers and sisters waiting for a recall.

Recent letter from Fred Reid to fuloughed guys offered no hope for recalls in the short term, although he did reference an increase in net number of shares sold.

I really dont think that Fred Reid has the best intentions for the furlough guys and gals. I would not be surprised if he is somehow trying to squeeze a few more days out of the current pilots.

Man hope things work out for the fellows. FlexJet pilots are some of the best and friendliest I've met. And they tip more than the obligatory $2. They're cool cats.

Is your address up to date? I got one, and know of at least one other who got one.
