Drop in demand- though social distancing is causing the drop in demand. Once the virus is under control and the economy is somewhat reasonable, there should be a resume of hiring when flying normalizes.

New LOA at NetJets. Up to 1000 pilots can take voluntary unpaid LOAs from 1 month to 12 months. Totally voluntary and the company can bring them back with 2 weeks notice if needed.

They will once one of their buddies gets sick and dies or comes close. Nothing hits home like near death.

Maybe they will, maybe they won’t. But right now, the competitor that is telling his employees NJA is furloughing is just plain making stuff up. ... Or maybe NJA management called him up just to see if it was OK with him if they did? 🤔.... 🤪 NAAAH
