The list goes back to November of 2006

No need!

The two most common reasons for business failure ARE:

1) A lack of capital
2) Failure to adjust to changing environments.

they have been picking up but not enough to stop the furloughs. it look like it could be two years for the recall letters to be sent out. imo.

Is there any more talk of future reductions? I thought I heard something about Sokol wanting to reduce the operation to 170 or so airframes

????

Is there any truth to a future fleet reduction, even if my numbers are off?

No that was part of an aviation article that was pure conjecture from someone outside the company...... As far as everything we are hearing, it is essentially that the company should maintain current staffing levels through 2010 barring any further reductions in demand.
Hopefully, we can turn things around this year and start bringing those impacted by the furlough back in the not too distant future.
