2010 is supposed to be a no growth year. We don't start taking airplanes again until 2011.

YMMV...fly safe.

My guess would be mid to late 2011 when we start taking airframes again...assuming that holds up.

Mat I bet you a buck that we have a class or two in Jan or Feb. Now if all of the guys and gals still out come back it may be just them. But, if they don't I think they might just drain the "pool"?

This may happen or perhaps I am just dreaming about getting off of RES!!!
