Yes. Furloughs by the end of the year, possibly up to 200. All 200's parked by Oct. 26th. Just got a 6 month extension on Q400 options.
Board of directors are a bunch of clowns.

I didnt want to start fake rumors, but I heard from a crew that the furloughs start in October.

I don't think they actually know right now, but around October is when it will probably start. They can't fulough too many at once since they'll be furloughing 400 guys and then having to re-train 200 guys to fill the spot so they don't end up short. Talked to an ACP who says the furloughs probably won't be less than a year. The good news is we all go to 400 pay at the end of October!

They will most likley pick up the 400 options late and take them on as slow as molasass just like everything with AAG.

Eh if the furloughs are as big as they're talking, everybody who will still be on property when this shakes out is likely already on Q400 pay.

If I am on 400 pay then my unemployment check will be bigger. Also, Xmas off.
