LMAO...the last thing I need is another reason to play Flight Control

Skywest has 80 (any) pilots on furlough? Second, grants from the government for improved situational awareness probably can't be used to pay pilots... unfortunately.

The 80 are from ASA, not Skywest (though I guess technically Skywest Inc. employees) and it is unfortunate that the grant money can't be used to bring them back

I'm sure the folks giving the grant would object. Personally, I'm not crazy about the government giving a huge, profitable company a handout to automate their cockpits.
