1- they don't want to give pilots any more reasons to organized
2-their Hawker fleet is fairly small, those pilots can be easily absorbed into other fleets
Then thats great news, then. The "F" should probably never used in conjecture, only facts.

It would work like, all the Hawker guys would be furloughed... They are talking about other equipment taking a hit on pilots as well. Upgrades are merit based from what I am told. I don't work there but have a few friends there.

"All pilot call" was held yesterday. No furloughs, everyone still got a job.

Yes, I believe that the "F" word shouldn't be used in conjecture, and yes I'm delighted that no fellow aviators are getting furloughed, or worse, terminated. Why would I want either?

Hawker guys are being trained on the Xs and 300s, and from what I've heard rumored a few went to the shuttle operation we are now running for Intel.

Tmc is buying them.
Wouldnt doubt the pilots will be offered jobs for less $... Better than being furloughed
