The usual stuff = force majeure.
War, natural disaster, strikes, grounding of an entire fleet by the FAA, etc. etc.

No. DAL is doubling the 777 fleet by next year. That means they need 400 additional pilots just for that. For every 10 777s you can add roughly 400 pilots. They are also getting more 737s and 757s. NWA is getting the 787. There will be a requirement for more pilots. And BTW, what furlough protection do you have at your airline that's ironclad?
