Sun Country still has 38 pilots on a six month layoff, We are technically supposed to be called back in November but you know how that goes

Horizon has said it is going to furlough. I have heard different numbers as to how many.

I think you can add Cargo 360 and Oasis to the Gone Out of Business list. Pretty sad!

Kitty Hawk's BK filing was in Oct., the plug was pulled Jan. 11th of this year. At least a couple got on at Gemini only to get dumped and a handful went to Skybus. See what being first in line gets you?

With all of this going on there are still some DAL people that think they should vote down getting pay raises in the JPWA with NWA because they "can get more"

Good luck to all of us in this crazy industry.

From what I was told by a former 360 guy was that they bought Southern and essentially mergered with them keeping the the Southern name.

Cargo360: The private equity group that owned C360 bought SAI but rolled C360 ops under the SAI certificate and closed C360 down. Almost all the C360 folks moved on rather than go to SAI. Not sure whether that counts here or not.

Also, Tradewinds furloughed all their 747 folks. Not sure the numbers. What's the word on ABX?

Sad times...glad I left on my own terms.
