Let's see how many of them come over to Rah.

Are your posts serious, or joking? Hopfully you constantly jest, because this stuff cannot be taken seriously.

What's the joke? Much of it's true. Between those who have already retired, resigned or have already found jobs both flying and not, I would be surprised if you see 25% come back and of those maybe 10-15% actually fly a revenue flight. Even in this market it is remarkable how many have already found jobs. This is if the SLI comes back as a ratio with a fence. Any worse than that and the percentage goes down quickly. Of course if CAL recalls and starts to hire our guys like FL is, then there maybe a handful.

The joke is this kid screams to the rooftops while working for Skywest (you know, same holding company, whip-sawing ASA, non-union....). He screams about the toothpick in RAH's eye while ignoring the plank in his.
